Reference Based Pricing Network

USA Managed Care Organization, Inc. (USA MCO) introduces Alter-Net Medical Services, Inc.  Alter-Net offers self-funded employer groups and insurance companies a predictable payment model through Alter-Net’s Reference-Based Pricing Network.

Employer Groups, Providers and Payors alike are not exempt from the pressures of rising healthcare costs and the administrative issues with lack of transparency.

  • Eliminates balance billing and litigation by securing contracts with facilities and providers.
  • RBP rates based on Medicare plus.
  • Predictability – costs and payments are pre-determined; the plan and the patient are better able to anticipate and handle healthcare expenses.
  • Fair pricing for both Provider as well as Patient.
  • Self-insured and self-funded employer groups educate their employees on pricing/payments and what the employee owes (less unexpected and unprepared patients).

This predictable payment model reimburses based on a percent of current year Medicare rates. Alter-Net’s intent is to connect local providers with neighboring employer groups and insurance companies to promote transparency in reimbursements and ensure providers are paid fairly and timely.
