My journey from BUCA to ClaimDOC
The US healthcare system provides an undeniable quality of care, technology, and providers. Yet, these providers are disconnected from the member by a maze of PPO’s that alienate and micromanage care, breed confusion and increase cost and stress on all sides. Perfect healthcare does not exist, however, after over 20 years of working in the PPO world, I set out on a journey to find the best mechanism for efficiently delivering healthcare solutions to plan sponsors. I found the solution with ClaimDOC.
From the 1940s to today, countless government and private solutions have promised efficient, quality, and affordable healthcare and failed to deliver. Today we have reduced the number of viable health carriers to a catchphrase, the BUCA’s. Government regulatory moves have rushed the consolidation of provider and hospital groups into powerful market forces using complicated algorithms to maximize revenue and gaining strong market positions, which leverage BUCA’s into constantly increasing reimbursements.
Cost transparency, billed charges, discounts, profit, quality metrics, and more are all extrapolated hokum. We all know that change is necessary, and for the fortunate few that want to fight for change, meaningful change is possible with ClaimDOC. Those who worry that change creates too much noise are dismissing the current noise and hoping change will occur from the same sources that made the problems and profit off the current state of confusion.
