Mastering Cost Containment in Insurance: NGS’ Proactive Approach
At NGS – Northcott Global Solutions, our cost containment strategies are integral to providing high-level service while preventing unnecessary expenses. This approach not only supports our partners and clients but also significantly enhances loss ratios, demonstrating our commitment to operational excellence and financial prudence.
Pre-Event Cost Containment Measures
Our cost containment starts long before a claim occurs. NGS’ meticulous pre-vetting ensures that only the most appropriate medical providers are selected. We evaluate potential partners based on their medical proficiency, commercial fairness, and operational integrity. This proactive approach guarantees that every interaction is cost-effective without compromising on quality.
During the Incident: Strategic Cost Management
During an event, our focus shifts to real-time decision-making based on the patient’s condition and overall wellbeing. We utilise our extensive network of PPOs and managed healthcare organisations to access discounted rates, further driving down costs. Our local partnerships allow us to respond without the hefty price tag often associated with international deployments. Furthermore, our Guarantee of Payment system is designed to manage expenses incrementally, avoiding large, unexpected costs.
Post-Event Financial Scrutiny
After care has been provided, our job is not done. NGS meticulously reviews all invoices and medical reports to ensure charges are justified and no unnecessary treatments are billed. We also engage in subrogation and seek contributions to improve claims ratios, emphasising our role in cost management even after the incident.
Streamlined Claims Handling
NGS’ claims department excels in handling cases efficiently. For situations that do not require our hands-on assistance, such as travel mishaps or lost luggage, we ensure minimal processing fees. This streamlined approach extends our cost containment efforts throughout the entire claims journey, from initial response to final settlement.
Key Benefits of NGS’ Cost Containment:
- Reduced Financial Waste: By ensuring appropriate charges and preventing overpricing.
- Enhanced Service Delivery: Through partnerships that prioritise quality and cost-effectiveness.
- Improved Loss Ratios: Thanks to diligent monitoring and proactive financial management.
