Expert Advocacy and Negotiation

Reimbursement begins with the contract. Our Payer Strategy & Contracting team ensures yours are fair, in line with market benchmarks, and optimized to pay you appropriately for the services you deliver.

Data-Driven Approach

We leverage our vast database of rates and terms to build data-driven support for reimbursement strategy and contract negotiations.

Comprehensive Strategy

We take a full-spectrum view of your payer landscape, reviewing current contracts, payer performance, regional benchmarks, and regulatory changes.

Experienced Negotiators

Our team understands the markets and payer behavior, and we draw on our longstanding payer relationships to reach agreement on your behalf.

No Surprises Act

We use the NSA process to bring out-of-network providers to the table with reasonable rates. We win 80% of those cases.

Advocacy

We’ll fight for you when policy changes or payer behavior impact revenue and reimbursement.

Payer Performance

We stay engaged beyond the negotiation to track contract performance and aggressively work with payers to resolve any payment issues.

Policy Updates

We stay on top of regulatory and payer policy changes, engaging our Client Success and Service Delivery teams to proactively address issues that may impact revenue.

“A strong payer contract is our first line of defense against changing market conditions.”

—Shanna Howe, Vice President, Strategic Partnerships
