Description

Building a successful self-funded health plan demands skilled and efficient vendor partners that have the expertise to deliver on their promises. Identifying the best vendors can be challenging, and settling for substandard partners can lead to less-than-desirable outcomes. But how do you find the best partners?

On this episode of ClaimTalk, Emma Fox, CHVA gets brutally honest during the first half of a two-part conversation with Danielle Young, Bruce Hansen and Stephanie Mohr on the struggles that can arise with vendors. While a good portion of the discussion centers on the issues they've experienced with third-party administrators, they also discuss why it can be difficult to find the right partners, the strategies they use to identify dependable vendors, and why some of the most unreliable vendors continue to survive in the industry.
