National PPO Premier Access Adds VIIAD’s Health Ticket Technology to Its Cost Containment Service Offering

VIIAD’s Health Ticket Enhances National PPO’s Provider and Ancillary Networks, Reduces Claims Costs and Provides Its Clients with a Competitive Advantage

PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Premier Access PPO, Inc., a national preferred provider network, has incorporated VIIAD Systems’ Health Ticket platform into its product offering.

“By deploying VIIAD, Premier Access is providing their Client’s with a competitive advantage by being able to deliver carrier level PPO discounts, reducing their administrative costs, increasing member and provider satisfaction, all the while complying with the ever changing PPO legislation”

VIIAD’s Health Ticket is an on demand, real time electronic identification, direction and PPO compliance technology that provides much more information than the traditional identification card and transmits all the information relevant to a health care transaction to the patient, provider and payor.

“The key to delivering seamless network services while reducing costs is to rigorously maintain current, defensible contracts with our providers” said Brian Duly, President of Premier Access. “Because the Health Ticket properly identifies the provider and their affiliated network information in real time and at the point of service, we can deliver a superior network to our clients which results in greater access and reduced claims costs.”

“Health plan members and providers truly benefit from the Health Ticket. For the first time, members and providers have a comprehensive view of health plan benefits, member’s financial responsibilities, pre-certification requirements and referral information, when they need it most- at the point of care. The Health Ticket simplifies the process and reduces administrative costs for providers and payors.”

“By deploying VIIAD, Premier Access is providing their Client’s with a competitive advantage by being able to deliver carrier level PPO discounts, reducing their administrative costs, increasing member and provider satisfaction, all the while complying with the ever changing PPO legislation,” said April Stiles, COO of VIIAD Systems. “This is a win-win-win scenario for all parties.”
