Payor Portfolio
Management

Boost your revenue and get paid more quickly
with better payor contracts.

What is Payor Portfolio Management?

Independent healthcare providers lack the funds and manpower that large organizations devote to constantly monitoring their payor contracts, allowing these giants to jostle payors for the most profitable contracts and reimbursement terms. In contrast, independent providers (IPs) often simply take contracts as they come, as they don’t have access to the resources and know-how to successfully negotiate for better rates.

Payor portfolio management (PPM) seeks to boost IPs’ revenue by identifying, negotiating, or re-negotiating, and securing new or existing contracts with key payors in the provider’s market.

In addition to the initial review and procurement of payor contracts, PayrHealth’s PPM services extend to year-round proactive maintenance, ensuring that when opportunities arise that could further benefit the provider, we’re ready to negotiate and pursue better terms and rates.

It’s common for providers like you to leave contracts untouched for years, going through renewal after renewal without knowing whether the market has changed for certain codes that could help you earn more money. In many cases, it has, which is why payor portfolio review and proactive contract monitoring are so important; these contracts are costing your practice money every day.

 

The timeline for new market expansion varies, as certain applications are only available once every few years. That’s why identifying every necessary provider and specialty contract opportunity before jumping into the negotiation and credentialing phase is vital; it ensures you don’t waste time applying for a region you won’t get this year anyway.

Understanding Payor Contracts

Payors often slip language into the fine print that limits the reimbursement your practice is eligible for. This includes limiting the number of days you have to submit a claim, which services are covered, and how quickly the payor must return reimbursement for an accepted claim.

These factors affect when and how your practice is paid, as well as how much and for which procedures. That’s why it’s so important to have a partner involved who can negotiate these contracts to secure better terms so you can be paid more and quicker for your services.

01

Have a Deep Understanding of Your Market and Payors

The process starts with an in-depth analysis of your current contract portfolio, identifying key contracts to re-negotiate and areas of potential growth and new patient acquisition with new contracts. We’ll formulate a value proposition that gives a clear outline of the results of our analysis and goals for your contract portfolio.

02

Develop Relationships with Payors

Once we have agreed on a value proposition that’s acceptable to you, we begin the work of contacting payors, requesting new contracts, escalating when receiving denials, and counter-proposing. We will keep you updated throughout this process and have you review and sign new contract terms when they are accepted by the payor.

03

Report on Progress

With PPM, you get bi-weekly meetings with our team to discuss progress and to keep ourselves aligned with your goals and our strategy’s deliverables. Each quarter, we’ll also have a comprehensive report on the results and progress of our strategy, which evolves as the landscape of your payor marketplace evolves.
