HPS Year in Review: 2019

HPS had an exciting year in 2019! We wanted to share these highlights with our valued partners, plus some new benefits available for your clients in 2020. Thank you for your continued relationship with HPS.

HPS Year in Review: 2019

 

Extraordinary Benefits for Your Clients

HPS’s continual efforts to secure the most advantageous provider contracts have helped us generate a healthcare cost trend well below the national average over the past 3 years. While the national average for healthcare costs is 5.7%, we’re able to secure costs of 2.3% for HPS members.

Over the past 11 years, using our patented technology, HPS has processed more than $4 billion in total medical bill charges + assumed $260 million in patient responsibility. HPS currently holds $6,900,000 on interest-free financing plans benefitting more than 2,600 members.

Meanwhile, our providers also enjoy strong cost benefits: 98% of all HPS provider claims are repriced, processed and paid accurately the first time without any claim adjustment.

Valuable Partnerships That Help Your Clients

In 2019, we continued to grow our network through strategic partnerships to better serve more members.

NOVO Partnership

Of all HPS employer groups who used orthopedic services in 2019, 17% used bundled rates through NOVO, generating $1.3 million in savings. More than 40% of all employer groups enrolled in the program. NOVO continues to add more providers for easier access to bundled services.

FABOH Advantage Partnership

Businesses in Fond du Lac now have a solution that maintains good benefits while better controlling costs. FABOH and HPS partnered to create FABOH Advantage, the best broad network offering in Fond du Lac County.
