The Benefits of Tight Contract Management
Manage episode 419682946 series 3438603
It's time for Employers to ensure they safeguard their interests and shield themselves with robust contracting language.
Carrier and vendor agreements are often crafted by their legal teams to safeguard the interests of the vendors, which may not always align with the needs of the employer. Far too often, employers have simply accepted these standard contracts, granting vendors the authority to dictate billing practices, define services, and even control data sharing. The moment has arrived for Employers—whether they're managing a Health Plan or acting as the payor—to take charge and reshape our delivery system, ensuring they receive the necessary support for their plans.
Join our expert panelists as we explore the intricacies of carrier and vendor agreements, often skewed in favor of vendors, and the necessity for Employers to assert their needs.
