Payer Reimbursement Strategies

Our roots in payer contracting run deep, making CodeToolz one of the most effective payer contracting and reimbursement firms in the country.

While working with healthcare groups across the country, we have seen payers reduce their fee schedules by 5% to 12% due to lack of attention, this is devastating to your practice.

Fortunately, longstanding patterns of poor attention to contracts can be broken by managing, analyzing, renegotiating and monitoring your payer contracts. We believe in a proactive approach, not a reactive one.

Let the experts at CodeToolz take your contracting efforts from burden to competitive advantage. The bottom line is that in managed care contracting, knowledge is power and planning is essential.

NEGOTIATING CONTRACTS

We have 3 decades of experience negotiating with payers. We take your payer contracting efforts from burden to competitive advantage, whether reviewing stale agreements or developing new contracts.

EXPAND CONTRACTS

Creating a long term relationship, we establish a partnership instead of short term agreements. There are many things to consider besides a good rate, including the impact on workflow, credentialing and the various products the payers offer.

PLAN RELATIONS

We develop the details for you to understand how each contract will apply to your organization. For example, you may be more interested in new products, employer affiliation or risk sharing models.

PROFITABILITY ANALYSIS

We focus on your return on investment in acquiring new contracts paid at better rates. Matching up the payer’s goals with your practice can open dialogue and new products that can offer opportunity.
