Today McKesson
Health Solutions announced that eight health plans representing over
8.5 million lives began using new releases of McKesson Provider Manager™
and Contract Manager™ in 2014. These solutions are part of the Network
Management suite that helps plans efficiently implement and scale
provider networks and associated reimbursement models.
"Payers are under unprecedented pressure to bring new networks to market
quickly to attract and retain members," says Carolyn Wukitch, SVP and GM
of Network and Financial Management at McKesson Health Solutions. "Our
solutions provide the agility and process efficiency needed to rapidly
develop new network models, contract for new care delivery and payment
models, and price more complex reimbursement arrangements. Through
automation, we can help reduce the time it takes to bring a new network
or reimbursement models to market from years to just a few months,
without adding headcount."
Developed in partnership with over 30 leading health plans, McKesson's
Network Management solution suite helps payers nimbly create customized
networks to appeal to today's healthcare consumer while facilitating
better collaboration with providers. The suite helps payers transform
network management to a strategic asset in a post-reform value based
healthcare world.
