Introduction
The healthcare payer market is undergoing a rapid transformation. With ObamaCare taking effect and boosting enrollments, several new payers find themselves overwhelmed while handling an unprecedented surge in volume. Also, as a result of the Affordable Care Act and the increase in size of the aging population, a greater number of high-risk individuals are now able to enroll for health plans than ever before. This naturally leads to more claims, in terms of both number and value.
In such a scenario, BPO has a much more relevant role to play in the industry. Service providers can help payers streamline their claims operations and reduce operational costs. They can provide services that help buyers bring out new plans in the market more frequently with minimal overheads. Providers can also help run data analytics that can impact the bottom line by targeting low-risk individuals as well as reducing cases of fraud, waste, and abuse.
In this study we analyze the healthcare payer BPO market. We focus on:
- Relative positioning of 20 service providers on the Everest Group PEAK Matrix for healthcare payer BPO
- Analysis of service providers’ market shares
- Key strengths and development areas for service providers
