Cost Containment

Unexpected illness or accidents are frightening especially when away from home and family. Medical quality concerns may be met  with the help of intermediaries or with self arrangements of patients, relatives or friends.

At the next phase, payment of medical expenses may become an important issue. In some parts of the world, overtreatment or overcharching is a common practice and patients may need to be protected against high or unreasonable medical bills. In some countries, government regulations may end up in inflating  foreign patient's bills.

Through its offices and international network, Remed Assistance obtains discounts on the medical bills.

Remed Assistance uses different resources, strategies and methods to control these costs:

• Clients' claims are mainly discounted by Remed Assistance by its combined PPO network and claim arbitration services. I.e., in the USA, as medical costs may be high for the undertakers or individuals, Remed Assistance has made contracts with best PPO (Preferred Providers Organization) companies that have higher hit rates and savings on re-priced bills.

• Government regulations are followed and the rights of beneficiaries, insurers, providers and non-insured individuals are protected as necessary

• Apart from its case-by-case negotiation and bill auditing capabilities, Remed Assistance identifies reliable and capable facilities.

• Through setting up the network of preferred providers, Remed Assistance uses its volume driven negotiation capabilities.

If you can involve Remed Assistance before, during or after the issuing of invoices, Remed Assistance and/or its collaborators will strive to obtain discounts on your medical bills.
