Client
Our client, a unique next-generation PPO network was the first network to incorporate the ePPO Program (Patent Pending). The ePPO Program combines evidence-based medicine (EBM) with a pay-for-performance incentive system to improve the quality and affordability of health care.
Project
Claimshop® was called on to become this client's technology partner – to develop and maintain repricing automation for over 116 (and growing) evidenced-based medicine guidelines with multiple potential reimbursement methodologies.
