Problem:
Too often parties to the claim are working
independently to resolve the claim. This
duplication of effort causes confusion and does

Solution:
By integrating Employer Policies with
“Preferred” Medical Providers and Third
Party Claims Administrators, we will
achieve a more cost-effective claim
resolution. © 07/09 D.Bugay
