Cutting Costs without Cutting Corners: Blackhawk’s Approach to Health Management

Many people know that there are two guarantees in life: death and taxes.

But the third? Rising costs.

It’s no secret that inflated medical costs are behind a lot of panic and woe for both employees and employers. It’s difficult to manage costs with self-funded health plans, but not impossible.

Of course, for many TPAs, this can look like cutting corners, slashing the quality of care. But Blackhawk understands the need for financial efficiency and a commitment to the best care. That’s why when you trust us with your benefits administration, you can be sure you’ll get the best price without sacrificing care, attention, and adherence to HIPAA and other regulations.

Here’s how we make a difference without cutting corners (while still cutting costs).

• Streamlined Processes

AKA, we don’t pass our clients around and make them sit on hold for hours on end. We also ensure each of our clients works with ONE case manager, developing a long-term, personal relationship without bouncing from case manager to case manager every time.

Our systems are streamlined to ensure quick and efficient care. We use automated claims processing and fraud detection using sophisticated AI algorithms and decentralized, secure data storage and sharing, which means no data silos with long-lost information.

Time is money, and with our method, everyone saves both.

• Flexible and Customizable Plans

We have access to many top providers to connect all clients with the plans that work for them without the fluff (and added costs). Employers can bring their concerns to the forefront and are encouraged to explore their options for the strategy that benefits their employees and gets the most from their dollar. Think of it as buying cable without all the extra channels you’ll never watch: a win-win.

• Proactive Service through Predictive Models and the Latest Technology

We don’t wait until the end of each quarter to figure out opportunities for saving our clients cash. Instead, we monitor costs and use predictive models to pinpoint immediate solutions.

Using data from disease management models and pulling information from real-time updates, we can offer the very best advice to our clients about how they can manage their health and maximize opportunities to keep track of tasks like yearly physicals and medication management.

A Commitment to Top Service

We do what we do because we can do it well and we care about our clients. Our team is equipped with longtime insurance experts and a commitment to excellence.

We also empower individual health journeys and encourage a personalized relationship with case managers to understand your unique needs year after year.

We also protect all client data with regular security audits and the best firewalls, encryption and intrusion detection software.

Even with many modern underwriting and security enhancements, we’re never finished being the best we can be (and on the market). Our employees are regularly trained and encouraged to develop their skills to bring you the best possible service.
