1 The most comprehensive health benefits measurement system available on the market today for self-insured employers. Reduce healthcare costs and comply with Sarbanes Oxley Along with many financial advantages businesses face today, the self-insured health plans adopted by thousands of companies, government jurisdictions and labor organizations present several significant risks and challenges. Double-digit medical inflation, skyrocketing drug costs, the inherent risk of self-insuring and expanded reporting requirements under Sarbanes-Oxley are making it almost mandatory for employers to measure the performance of third-party administrators and pharmacy benefit managers. Healthcare expenditures alone in the United States total almost $2 trillion. In 2005, employers spent an average of $4,024 for single coverage and $10,880 for family coverage and this year employers will spend over $7,000 per employee per year on health benefits. Potential risks inherent in self-insured health plans: Payment of claims may not be made according to Summary Plan Document Relying on internal controls of third-party administrators and pharmacy benefit managers Relying on policies and procedures of third-party administrators and pharmacy benefit managers may have cost implications Discrepancies in funding Lack of stop-loss management may result in overpayments Recovered overpayments may not reach your account Weak other party liability monitoring may increase your exposure Contracted care management services may not result in adequate ROI About HDM Healthcare Data Management, Inc.
