  1. SNF Managed Care Contracts: Negotiation Tips For Higher Reimbursements Managed care contracts are agreements that set the terms and circumstances for delivering and reimbursing health services between healthcare providers and payers. Negotiating these contracts can be difficult, especially in a fast-paced and competitive market. However, you may improve your organization’s and patients’ outcomes with the right strategies. Here are some tips to help you prepare for and carry out successful managed care contract negotiations. https://www.247medicalbillingservices.com https://www.247medicalbillingservices.com info@247medicalbillingservices.com info@247medicalbillingservices.com

  2. Tip #1: Build Trust & Rapport Though negotiating a managed care contract (MCC) is a financial transaction, it is also an opportunity to create rapport and confidence with the payer. To accomplish this, you must always be courteous, respectful, and professional. Furthermore, it is critical to actively and emphatically listen to the payer’s concerns and interests, clarify any ambiguities or misunderstandings, ask open-ended questions, share relevant information and data that supports your position, and offer creative solutions that address both parties’ needs and goals. https://www.247medicalbillingservices.com info@247medicalbillingservices.com

  3. Tip #2: Don’t Limit Your Focus to Rates As MCCs govern various provider operations, healthcare facilities mustn’t limit their scope to only rates. When negotiating with a payor, extracting the most money for each service can constantly be enticing, but there are other factors to consider. • How does the relationship impact day-to-day operations? • How do reimbursement schedules work? • What is the payor’s (MCO’s) reputation for responding to inquiries and processing payments? • Is the payor’s credentialing criterion precise, putting the provider at a disadvantage? • How diverse is the contract’s requested service offering? https://www.247medicalbillingservices.com https://www.247medicalbillingservices.com info@247medicalbillingservices.com info@247medicalbillingservices.com

  4. Tip #3: Develop A Negotiation Plan After gathering pertinent information, you must create a negotiation plan that defines your strategies, objectives, tactics, and alternatives. A list of the contract terms and provisions that you intend to negotiate, such as incentives, rates, dispute resolution, quality measures, and termination clauses, should be included in your strategy. Tip #4: Create a Profile for Each MCC One of the most essential elements of contract management approaches is preparation. Providers should establish an MCO profile for each negotiation process before initiating talks or renegotiations with a specific MCO.
