InterConsultation™ Program
Best Doctors InterConsultation™ Program helps members facing acute, serious illnesses get the right medical care resulting in substantial cost savings to self-funded employers and health plans. For many, saving money by helping people get the best care is unexpected. But this unique combination is the reason that Best Doctors is rapidly becoming an indispensable part of every benefit program.
Here is how we can help your members get the right diagnosis, the right expertise and the best outcome:
The Right Diagnosis
The process begins when an enrolled member contacts us directly or when a serious medical situation is identified by Best Doctors. The Best Doctors team of Harvard-affiliated doctors, specially skilled in the assessment of serious cases, performs an exhaustive analysis of the member’s medical information. The thorough analysis of information allows us to identify medical issues that could have been missed during the initial evaluation of a patient.
The Right Expertise
Next, we harness the expertise of the exclusive Best Doctors in America® database, bringing the clinical knowledge of world-class experts to the problems of people with serious illnesses. We provide specific diagnosis and treatment recommendations. Your employees enjoy valuable insights from top experts and constant guidance and support from Best Doctors dedicated nurses – without leaving home.
The Right Outcome
Best Doctors works with the patient’s treating doctor to ensure that recommendations are implemented. By making sure your members get the right care, Best Doctors reduces complications and helps avoid ineffective treatments. Our Results:
- Treatment modified 61% of the time
- Diagnosis changed 22% of the time
- $21,689 average per case reduction of inappropriate medical costs
