Health Provider Search - Vertically Integrated Outpatient
Health Provider Search - Vertically integrated outpatient facilities for blood work, imaging, surgery, and urgent care charge more, than independently owned facilities, to provide the same level of care. To offset this cost difference, independent facilities place patient charges higher than the actual cost of providing care.Â
Vertically integrated providers are also known to charge insurers different amounts for providing the same procedure. Health Provider Search creates a search experience that allows users to find an independently owned facility that best fits their needs thereby making smarter choices about where to receive medical treatment.

Emergency Rooms vs Urgent Care
Emergency rooms are the most expensive places to receive medical care at more than 2X the cost of urgent care facilities. Knowing if you need urgent care allows you to save money but more importantly, time. Urgent cares are great for colds, influenza, insect bites/stings and non-life threatening injuries.
Are you a healthcare consumer? In 2016 there were more than 51 million emergency room visits in the U.S. alone. It is estimated that patients have over $38 billion in after-hours bills due to using the emergency room when it could have been avoided. We created a simple mobile app to educate the consumer on costs and available treatment options so they can make better informed decisions.

The Medical Cost Containment Industry has changed significantly over the last several years. This cost containment app is different.

As important as it is to be an educated medical care consumer, it is equally important to make your decisions in conjunction with your personal physician. Show them the results of your Smarter Search and confirm there are no comorbidities or conditions that warrant a procedure being done in a hospital setting at multiple times the cost of an outpatient facility. If in your physician’s professional opinion you are best served at a higher-priced facility that is exactly where your procedure should take place.
