It's no secret that the traditional RFP process isn't working for insurers or insurtechs. That's why we think procurement teams could benefit from using Reverse RFPs. For those of you that don't know, let's break it down... The reverse RFP is issued by an insurtech, inviting insurers to bid for insurtech on preferential terms, such as exclusivity or a reduction on standard SaaS fees 😃 It's a great way for insurers to get ahead of the tech cycle and at the same time, reduce cost. Not only that but it shortens the sales cycle for insurtechs. Win. Win. Win. Never miss an opportunity by subscribing to our Reverse RFP notification service. https://lnkd.in/en9nBiyH #Insurance #ReverseRFP #ProcurementProcess

Is Oscar Health Poised to Dominate Florida's ACA Market in 2025? While analyzing CMS Rate Review data - which, like many datasets, comes with its share of complex numbers - I've uncovered some fascinating trends. The chart below shows Member-Months over time grouped by insurance companies in Florida. The Rate Review files offer much more than just premium information; they're packed with valuable data on reinsurance amounts, member months, trends, and more. I've heard about Oscar Health's growing focus on the Florida market, and now the data is helping me understand why. They appear to be making significant strides in Florida's ACA market. Looking at the numbers, Oscar has already surpassed Florida Blue's Health Options Inc. subsidiary in 2024. If this trajectory continues, Oscar could potentially become the largest ACA player in Florida's market in the near future. Quick question for those running ACA plans: Do you utilize Rate Review data to study and track competitors? How do you leverage these files? I'm just beginning to explore these datasets and have many questions. If you have experience working with this data, come join us at mimilabs to explore various aspects together!

10 Significant Ways That Hallmark Abstract Service Differentiates Itself From Many New York Title Insurance Providers! Questions? Email CEO Mike Haltman at [email protected] or call him at (646) 741-6101. 1. The ancillary and ‘junk’ fees on Hallmark Abstract title bills are often $500-$1,500 less than those of other title insurance companies! This is a significant amount of money that is better in the pockets of the buyer, than in the pockets of a title insurance company! 2. At a closing the New York buyer will receive a title insurance policy. The overriding question, however, is what title company work went into creating that policy? Since its inception in 2008, Hallmark Abstract Service has had no valid title claims. 3. Attorneys for the buyer, the seller, the mortgage company and any other player in the transaction will have ONE point of contact at our firm. 4. If a business decision ever has to be made, at Hallmark Abstract you will be dealing with the owners of the company. 5. Affiliated Business Relationships or ABS. Hallmark Abstract does not have any of these that have the potential to create a serious conflict of interest. Imagine if a critical member of your real estate team such as attorney had a vested interest in seeing a deal close due to title insurance ties. 6. Hallmark Abstract does not take shortcuts! If an ‘easy’ solution exists that will get a deal to closing faster, but that solution does not protect our client to the greatest extent possible, we will not go that route! 7. We recommend a 2nd opinion! Regardless of who is providing title, we always recommend getting a title bill from a second company to make sure the non-premium charges are fair (see #1). If a significant difference in cost exists, we advise going to the original title company and request a reduction. 8. Technology! Hallmark Abstract provides a free and on-demand title insurance bill platform. 24/7, for any purchase price and mortgage amount, and in any New York State city or town, buyers, attorneys, real estate agents, and mortgage loan originators can get a title insurance bill. https://lnkd.in/ePXEfJF. 9. Testimonials! As a result of the quality of the work Hallmark Abstract provides its clients, the firm has been blessed by a great many fantastic testimonials. Read some of them at the Hallmark Abstract Service Google Business Page simply by Googling our name. 10. Financial Strength! The financial strength of the title policy underwriter is critical. Hallmark Abstract’s primary underwriter is the Fidelity National Title Group, the largest and best-capitalized title insurance underwriter of them all! #LongIslandrealestate #NYCrealestate #realestate #homebuyers #titleinsurance #law #lawyers #attorney #insurance #realestateattorney #realestateagent

Last week we shared that Blue Shield of California’s prior authorization platform solution built on Salesforce Health Cloud will work within physician systems to gather relevant clinical data from electronic health records. This all happens within one system rather than 20+ disparate systems in near real-time rather than days. Together, we are making it as easy as possible for providers and their support staff to submit and see prior authorization decisions right in their flow of work. It’s time to get rid of the outdated systems of the past be in the digital age of the future. https://lnkd.in/gka3f2Xc #healthcare #priorauthorization
