Today’s physicians marshal powerful tools for diagnosing disease, including CT, MRI, and PET and cardiac nuclear medicine. Medical imaging’s potential expands with each newer, faster, more accurate modality. However, technology has a price. Diagnostic imaging is one of the biggest inflators of ballooning medical costs. It accounts for one-eighth to one-quarter of all billings to private insurers and Medicare. Maintaining quality and safety while reducing expenses requires robust management. Since 2000, HealthHelp has generated significant savings and return on investment for insurers by decreasing costs while improving enrollees’ quality of care and reducing unnecessary radiation exposure. As a leader in radiology benefit management, HealthHelp collaborates with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, MedPAC, Thomas Jefferson University, and nationally recognized radiology experts to develop programs that work for enrollees and their insurers. |
