The Challenge

Government – Network-Based

A full-risk plan looking to expand into adjacent counties needed:

  • Assistance with provider network access to meet a looming filing deadline
  • Selective access to providers post-filing, as needed to meet network adequacy requirements

The Solution

³ÉÈËÊÓƵ analysis identified providers under contract that could:

  • Add immediate value for the filing process by filling gaps in the plan’s network
  • Be accessed on an ongoing basis or until the plan could complete contracting efforts

The Results

³ÉÈËÊÓƵ contributed nearly 700 Medicare providers to the filing and credentialed 20% of the providers to enable ongoing access, helping the plan to:

  • Meet its adequacy requirements for plan-to-plan contracts
  • Successfully apply for a CMS contract in two of the counties
