Vālenz® Releases New Provider Locator for Members

October 29, 2021/in Announcements, Featured, Press, Valenz Access/by Maris Panjada

New search capabilities bring more transparency into access, cost and quality

PHOENIX, Ariz. (October 29, 2021) — In keeping with their commitment to innovation that fuels strong, vigorous and healthy lives, Vālenz® has announced the release its new Provider Locator tool. Available online for plan members and administrators to access anytime, the new and improved Provider Locator is uniquely designed to bring more information and transparency to the process of choosing a provider for healthcare services.

In addition to an array of filters for members to refine searches according to their individual needs and preferences, the new Provider Locator also includes star-ratings and cost data, as well as an interactive map that pins provider locations within the defined geography. Search results include providers currently under contract within each member’s Valenz Access provider network, as well as “Valenz-Friendly” providers who have previously accepted reimbursement from Valenz.

“Engaging early and often for smarter, better, faster healthcare can take many forms, but in most cases, it begins with connecting people to quality providers who will deliver the right care at the right time and at the right cost according to plan coverage,” said Maurice Steenland, Senior Vice President of Product and Delivery. “We are very excited about this initial release and look forward to continuously expanding the data available to plan members in support of their healthcare decisions.”

With future updates, says Steenland, the Provider Locator tool will become more robust with expanded cost and quality data for providers in Valenz networks.

Vālenz® to Attend SIIA’s 2021 National Educational Conference & Expo

October 1, 2021/in Announcements, Events, Featured, Press/by Maris Panjada

Event to be held October 3-5 in Austin, Texas

PHOENIX, Ariz. (October 1, 2021) — As Diamond members of the Self-Insurance Institute of America (SIIA) and industry-leading innovators for the self-insured and captive insurance marketplace, Vālenz® leaders have announced they are attending SIIA’s annual National Educational Conference and Expo again this year.

The 41st annual conference event, which takes place virtually and in person, provides event participants with many opportunities to discover game-changing solutions, including the data-driven Valenz ecosystem.

“We are excited about this year’s conference theme – The Way Forward – because it reflects the need to reimagine the paradigms of self-funded health plans,” said Rob Gelb, Chief Executive Officer at Valenz. “That’s what we do every day within the Valenz ecosystem. We make it possible to achieve measurable, meaningful improvements in cost and quality year over year.”

Several members of the Valenz executive team will be attending this year’s SIIA conference, including Amy Gasbarro, Chief Operating Officer; Nathan Nelson, Senior Vice President, Growth; Jordan Hersh, Vice President, Business Development; Chris Shoffner, Vice President, Business Development; and Brittney Parrish, Senior Client Services Executive.

By integrating data from high-value provider networks, care management, revenue cycle, claim management and more, Valenz provides uniquely transparent and data-driven decision enablement. “Part of the way forward for our industry will be shaped by how we target the 5-15 percent of claims that drive up to 70 percent of health plan spending – that’s the key to driving costs down while driving quality and member experience up,” Gelb said.

The in-person component of the 2021 conference will be held at the JW Marriott Hotel in Austin, Texas. Educational content is being delivered virtually with a combination of live and pre-recorded sessions scheduled throughout the conference. Attendees are encouraged to talk with Valenz at the event for a one-on-one exploration of next-generation data engagement and decision enablement that drives smarter, better, faster healthcare.

Integrated Payor Solutions Seals Partnership with Vālenz®

September 30, 2021/in Announcements, Featured, Press/by Maris Panjada

(September 30, 2021) – Integrated Payor Solutions, a full-stack tech solution for medical claim processing, announced a new partnership with Arizona-based healthcare company Vālenz®. “We’re proud to announce our partnership with Valenz, and excited to introduce our transparency solution for the No Surprises Act, Transparency+, into the powerful Valenz ecosystem,” said Shawn Evans, CEO of Integrated Payor Solutions. 

Transparency+ is a No Surprises Act-focused, bolt-on software solution offered by Integrated Payor Solutions that helps companies like Valenz provide their clients with more efficient and successful medical claims processing alternatives, including advanced EOBs. Additionally, this specialized solution by IPS is built on the flexible, dynamic Salesforce platform, which is easily integrated into any existing technology stack. “With the introduction of the No Surprises Act, we’re seeing companies like Valenz recognize how crucial the IPS platform is for their clients,” says Evans. “It’s rapidly becoming clear how critical it is for health plans to start implementing a transparency solution today – fortunately, we have the ability to bring that solution online in an average of 60 days.” 

“At Valenz, we are actively engaging with our health plan, TPA and self-insured clients to support them in implementing the federally mandated procedures for protecting patients from surprise medical bills and delivering increased transparency for medical costs and coverage,” said Rob Gelb, Chief Executive Officer of Valenz. “Together with ecosystem partners, like IPS, we are providing the foundation necessary for our clients to achieve compliance when the Act takes effect next year,” said Gelb. 

The No Surprises Act signed into law in December 2020 requires TPAs, health plans and self-insured employers to maintain up to date, in-network provider directories and disclose detailed pricing and cost-sharing information to consumers and other stakeholders. “These new requirements create a serious gap for health plans – one that IPS is equipped to solve with a stand-alone prospective claims processing system and cost estimator,” said Evans. “Our efficient implementation process brings health plans up to speed with transparency requirements, which is imperative as we approach 2022.”

Vālenz® Announces Partnership with Beecher Carlson

July 12, 2021/in Announcements, Featured, Press/by Maris Panjada

Risk Bearing Provider Organization Assessment Can Help Minimize Risk, Drive Savings for Value-Based Care

PHOENIX, Ariz. (July 12, 2021) — Vālenz® has announced a strategic partnership with Beecher Carlson, an insurance brokerage firm that leverages advanced analytics for optimal risk management. Through this partnership, Valenz and Beecher Carlson collaboratively offer the industry’s most in-depth Risk Bearing Provider Organization (RBPO) Assessment for thorough, data-driven analysis of whether an organization is positioned successfully for two-sided risk contracts in a value-based payment model.

Value-based payment models offer significant opportunities to reduce costs, enhance quality and improve outcomes. However, the pay-for-performance reimbursement structure might not be right for every health system or provider group. This RBPO Assessment identifies areas that need assistance and offers solutions to address potential deficiencies. It also helps determine if the program goals and incentives are aligned with the organization’s expected results and endorsed by all stakeholders.

“While there is a high level of interest and enthusiasm for value-based care, the clinical and financial risks need to be carefully considered – and in a two-sided contract, cultural and operational requirements must be in place to ensure success,” said Rob Gelb, Chief Executive Officer of Valenz. “Through this partnership with Beecher Carlson, we are excited to provide actionable insights and proven solutions to guide our clients’ approach to value-based care.”

As noted by Brad Lawson, Senior Vice President-Provider Risk Solutions of Beecher Carlson, the RBPO Assessment financial models assess risk-reward ratios, quantifying maximum probable gains as well as the maximum probable losses. “The 360-degree data and trend analyses account for real-world conditions, allowing organizations to stay nimble, proactively manage risk, and prepare for developing situations – such as an influx of more serious cases following the COVID-19 pandemic as a result of delayed care,” he said.

Vālenz® Announces Strategic Partnership with Turquoise Health

Vālenz Announces Strategic Partnership with Turquoise Health

April 26, 2021/in Announcements, Featured, Press, Valenz Access/by Maris Panjada

Database of negotiated hospital rates elevates consumer transparency and choice

PHOENIX, Ariz. (April 26, 2021) — Vālenz® announced today a partnership with Turquoise Health, a software solutions company that facilitates consumer transparency through its newly launched platform listing payer-negotiated hospital rates.

With new price transparency regulations requiring hospitals to share previously undisclosed rates for many services, Turquoise Health has created the first comparison engine for consumers to make cost-effective decisions about their care.

With full access to Turquoise Health’s database of hospital rates, Valenz will incorporate the comparison information into its concierge-level navigation program and self-service member portal. Valenz also will utilize the data to build highly efficient networks that drive quality care and customer satisfaction alongside cost savings.

“Our partnership with Turquoise Health aligns with our data-driven ecosystem and helps us take a significant step toward providing the transparency our clients and their members need,” said Rob Gelb, CEO of Valenz. “Not only can we share the cost structure of hospital services to help guide members’ decisions, but we can also help them gauge the quality of the service. It’s a key component of the Valenz promise to assure smarter, better, faster healthcare.”

As of Jan. 1, 2021, the federal rule requires hospitals to publish a machine-readable file listing their negotiated payment rates for hundreds of medical procedures, as well as a website where consumers can search for services and prices. Initial compliance has been mixed, with reports of some hospitals blocking their pricing from showing up on web searches – making the Turquoise Health platform all the more valuable in elevating transparency.

CEO Chris Severn says its database currently has more than 2,000 verified rates, and the list continues to grow as Turquoise painstakingly combs through and verifies hospital pricing data.

“This is just the beginning of making hospital billing more clear and patient-friendly,” Severn said. “Using both public price rates data and Turquoise participating provider data, we are showing there is a market for transparency in healthcare. We help put negotiating power where it belongs — in the hands of the consumer.”

NaVcare brings member-centric services and data-driven insights into the patient journey, connecting the dots for smarter, better, faster healthcare. NaVcare navigators serve as a central hub for care coordination, providing personalized education, collaboration and communication.

“When integrated with the full Valenz ecosystem, real-time intelligence allows us to target the 5-15 percent of claims that drive 70 percent of an employer’s health spend,” explained Rob Gelb, Chief Executive Officer. “By integrating the high value network design of Vālenz Access with care navigation, Valenz is helping our clients achieve up to 85 percent in-network participation within 12 months, resulting in significant plan and member savings.”

V3 Repricing Engine: Fueled by Big Data to Ensure Fair, Market-Supported Reimbursements

September 14, 2020/in Announcements, Featured, Press, Valenz Claim/by kamryn cain

PHOENIX, Ariz. (Sept. 14, 2020) – To accelerate fair and accurate claim repricing and ensure market-supported reimbursements, Vālenz™ has introduced the V3 Repricing Engine. Fueled by the volume, variety and velocity of data within the Valenz ecosystem, V3 supports strategic decision-making and creates value for the payer, the provider and the patient.

The V3 Repricing Engine can identify patterns and pinpoint high-performing providers with optimal cost structures, along with delivering greater efficiency and reduced turnaround times for processing and payments. Ultimately, it ensures savings on professional claims, which account for up to 85% of claim volume for self-funded insurers.

Aggregating years of robust claims data with industry-leading sources, the V3 Repricing Engine uses the proprietary, data-rich VMSSM Repricing Methodology to determine fair, defensible claim reimbursements. Its detailed analysis goes further to identify potential program pain points and opportunities for additional savings. For integrity and timeliness, VMSSM continuously scrubs and adjusts the data as needed to ensure a fair market price for all services rendered, while identifying potential fraud, waste and abuse.

“As we continue to identify solutions that control costs while serving the member and helping the employer, the V3 Repricing Engine is one more way we fulfill our promise of better, smarter, faster healthcare,” said Rob Gelb, Chief Executive Officer of Valenz. “The proprietary algorithms of our VMSSM Repricing Methodology provide actionable insights to support a consistent and substantiated reimbursement model, reducing friction among the payer, provider and patient.”

Curating from multiple data sets to offer up-to-date, regionally specific reimbursement recommendations, the V3 Repricing Engine is fueled by the three Vs of big data:

  • Volume: Years of historical paid claims data
  • Variety: Numerous geographical, medical and claim data elements
  • Velocity: Up-to-date information using real-time insight

“While the V3 Repricing Engine applies to all medical claims, it maximizes discounts for high-volume, low-dollar claims – an overlooked segment in the market to increase value for self-funded plans,” said Amy Gasbarro, Chief Operating Officer of Valenz. “This approach to repricing reduces the cost of healthcare for all parties involved.”

United Claim Solutions Becomes Vālenz

September 30, 2019/in Featured, Press/by ryan kesner

The UCS Family of Companies now operates under unified corporate name, delivers complete health administrative ecosystem

The United Claim Solutions Family of Companies – one of the nation’s leading medical cost reduction and claims flow management organizations serving the self-insured employer community directly and with partners in the benefit consultant, broker and payer communities – today announced the transformation of the organization through its new name: Vālenz™.  The new name unites a suite of solutions and completes the integration of all of the resources necessary to deliver the industry’s first complete healthcare administrative ecosystem.

“Valenz is a fully integrated, single-source, end-to-end platform that connects and analyzes cost and quality data to reduce the total cost of care while improving health outcomes,” said Rob Gelb, Chief Revenue Officer. “As data flow through the Valenz ecosystem, our analytic and predictive capabilities enable us to engage early and often for smarter, better, faster healthcare.”

Actionable data is key. The firm has spent years and invested in key resources building integrated data systems and fine-tuning solutions that support its client base of self-insured employers, third-party claim administrators, brokers and benefit consultants, labor and trust organizations, stop-loss carriers, integrated healthcare delivery networks, and health/dental plan payers.

Founded in 2004 as United Claim Solutions with a vision of creating comprehensive and innovative solutions to support the self-insured industry, over nearly two decades, the company has steadily expanded its development and use of analytics that drive new solutions and reset the expectations of a service partner.

In 2015, the company launched a division dedicated solely to filling the void in access to high-value medical networks and creating alignment between the payer, patient, employer, medical professional and health system. Two years later, they acquired and integrated a suite of care management offerings, followed quickly by another acquisition that brought software-based tools for payment integrity and compliance into the evolving health administrative ecosystem.

Today, the Valenz ecosystem comprises these services – powered by data from payers, employers, patients and health systems – to provide a highly innovative solution. Available as standalone products and as an integrated platform, the Valenz ecosystem includes Vālenz Care (formerly INETICO); Vālenz Access (formerly NX Health Network); Vālenz Claim (formerly United Claim Solutions); and Vālenz Assurance (formerly Zebu Compliance Solutions).

“As healthcare costs continue to rise, affecting the plan costs of employers and the out-of-pocket expenses of members, we are taking a fully integrated, data-driven approach that substantially impacts total medical spend in key areas,” said Gelb. “This complete ecosystem brings our clients superior cost savings and outcomes than they can achieve elsewhere by focusing action on the claims that drive these costs.”
