ClarisHealth Named a Preferred Vendor by the Association for Community Affiliated Plans

Oct 6, 2021

NASHVILLE, Tenn., Oct. 7, 2021 – ClarisHealth, the company transforming health plan operations with its comprehensive payment integrity technology platform Pareo®, announced today they have been designated as a Preferred Vendor by the Association for Community Affiliated Plans (ACAP).

ACAP is a national trade association which represents not-for-profit Safety Net Health Plans, collectively serving more than 20 million people in Medicaid, Medicare, Affordable Care Act Marketplaces and other publicly supported programs. Preferred Vendors must go through a rigorous review process to be approved into the program.

ACAP’s goal to “strengthen members strategically and operationally to improve their quality, efficiency, competitiveness and sustainability…” is well-aligned with the capabilities offered by Pareo. ClarisHealth counts several ACAP-member health plans as Pareo clients that use the platform to support cost containment and digital transformation strategies.

“We are honored to be named a Preferred Vendor by ACAP,” says Mark Lavallee, Chief Growth Officer at ClarisHealth. “Since ClarisHealth’s beginnings in 2013, we have worked with Safety Net Health Plans to develop technology-enabled payment integrity and FWA solutions. These claims cost-savings innovations ensure they have more funds available to serve their members and communities. It is a privilege to expand upon this mission by supporting ACAP-member plans.”

ClarisHealth’s integrated technology platform Pareo is a HITRUST CSF® Certified SaaS solution for payers that enables them to manage external and internal cost-containment operations at a greater ROI than traditional market solutions. One ACAP-member health plan client doubled their overpayment recoveries after only their first year of using Pareo and has realized a 15x return on their software investment.

Pareo can meet many use cases across a health plan, with feature sets that can be stacked to build configurable solutions and multi-year strategies:

Vendor management: Optimize outsourced payment integrity operations with integrated workflows and increased visibility to improve services supplier efficiency by 35%.

Audit internalization: Enable internal auditors, nurses, coders and analysts to efficiently conduct data mining, DRG and IBR audits with automated workflows and A.I.-powered detection that improves analyst productivity 3x.

Prospective cost avoidance: Reduce improper payments with full visibility into overpayment recovery operations, automation, root cause remediation, and ability to shift detection analytics to prepay to improve cost avoidance by 35%.

Fraud, waste and abuse mitigation: Harness A.I.-powered provider detection models to go deeper and wider into data to surface real-time anomalies and manage cases while seamlessly coordinating with payment integrity to improve efficiency and effectiveness for a 20-50% increase in savings.

ClarisHealth looks forward to partnering with additional ACAP-member plans to help them maximize claims cost avoidance and recoveries at the most optimized cost. For more information on the Pareo technology platform, please visit https://www.clarishealth.com/solutions/.
