(Medical-NewsWire.com, May 29, 2013 ) Boca Raton, FL --- The segment will focus on Device Benefit Management Solutions to Meet Today’s Healthcare Challenges
As the industry leading provider of Device Benefit Management™ solutions, IPG will speak in conjunction with partners Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina and Charlotte Surgery Center on revolutionizing the way health plans, employers and healthcare providers can utilize never before seen transparency in creating informed consumers and improving quality and cost of healthcare for surgical procedures.
“We want to help our customers make better decisions with their healthcare dollars. They need transparency in order to make that happen. That is one of the reasons our relationship with IPG is so valuable to us and to our customers,” said Dr. Brian Caveney, Vice President and Medical Director at Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina.
As healthcare costs continue to rise, and the industry focuses on health reform and health exchanges, Accountable Care Organizations and varying payment models, there is an imperative need for strategies that provide transparency, standardization and collaboration to ultimately reduce healthcare costs and drive better quality for consumers. IPG will discuss the specialized Device Benefit Management space and how they have been able to create meaningful cost savings and transparency that made its way back to employers and consumers by consolidating what’s been a highly fragmented purchasing and data collection market.
“For the first time in 23 years as a physician I am not only able to help my patients choose the best treatment for their problem, I am also able to help them find the most cost effective way to provide that care. Thanks to companies like IPG, SCA, and BCBSNC and their willingness to work directly with physicians, together, we are making a big difference in the cost of Healthcare. This is really an opportunity for not only ASCs but hospitals and their physicians as well to collaborate with all parties to bring lower cost, high quality care to consumers,” said Dr. Roy Majors, Orthopedic Surgeon at OrthoCarolina.
