Hospital-related costs typically represent 45% of total healthcare costs • For hospitals, billed charges for the same procedures are not the same for all networks and/or carriers thereby leaving room for manipulation of network discounts • Under this repricing system, each hospital-related claim is individually negotiated to be on a cost-plus basis not a “billed charge minus” basis. • National and up-to-date databases are used to develop benchmark pricing onto which a fair profit margin is added for the hospital provider. • There is 95% hospital provider acceptance of the negotiated rate as it is typical higher than what the networks pay under the provider contracts • For hospital related claims, equivalent discounts off billed charges under this pricing method equate to minus 64% on average vs. minus 33% for typical major U.S. insurance carrier’s PPO Cost Plus Hospital Pricing
Actual Example-PPO Network vs. Cost Plus $1,880,795 $1,130,134 41.33% $299,602 77.83% 377% difference
