Visual, Sharable Benefits Analytics
Cedar Gate Healthcare Benefits Analytics is an employee benefits analytics and reporting application for self-funded employers, their payers, and their broker/consultant advisory partners seeking to meet the plan sponsor’s clinical and financial performance goals. It enables benefits managers to tailor plan parameters and model performance based on the characteristics of the member population. Visual dashboards distill the data into prescribed actions, preventing clients from getting lost in the analysis. Focused reports track the efficacy and impact of care management activities and point solutions by monitoring performance indicators in member cohorts. Unlike the competition, the Healthcare Benefits Analytics tool is built for self-service plan design and reporting, reducing or eliminating the need for additional consultants or vendors. It pulls data from a common data lake that is shared by Cedar Gate’s Care Management application, ensuring the accurate translation of data to insights, and insights to action. The application is cloud-based and built on a next-generation NoSQL database for rapid interpretation of unstructured data. It enriches member data to identify savings recommendations and generates visual dashboards that communicate insights and key points to all stakeholders.

Monitor performance indicators and correct undesirable trends.
COHORT IDENTIFICATION

Key Differentiators
Pave the Way®
Pave the Way® is ClaimDOC’s trademarked proactive healthcare provider outreach program, which begins up to 60 days prior to the effective date. Our Member Advocates create a one-on-one relationship with each member to help them navigate their new plan. As part of the onboarding process, our implementation team explains the reimbursement method and claims submission process to each provider to ensure a smooth transition between plans. On average, 90% of providers contacted through Pave the Way® accept our fair payment solution.
Pave the Way® is the most differentiating aspect of ClaimDOC’s reference based pricing plan (RBP). There’s nothing like it on the market today.
True, Fiduciary Protection
90% average provider participation
ClaimDOC bears costs for risk management for the plan as well as for member legal disputes related to RBP services.
FREE Physician Claims Processing
Unique to ClaimDOC, all provider/HCFA claims under $2,000 are repriced and defended at no cost to encourage and support complete network replacement.
Detailed, Line-by-Line Audits
Our proprietary claims management and audit system is custom engineered to allow for detailed line-by-line audits. Our in-house audit team is comprised of healthcare experts who conduct “eyes on” reviews of all UB-04 facility claims, ensuring maximum savings. Many RBP programs only review balance bills and appealed claims.
No Outsourcing
At ClaimDOC, we do everything in-house, including implementation, provider relations, balance bill support, clinical auditing, legal management, and member advocacy. Our highly responsive Member Advocates guide clients through our program to ensure a smooth experience for all.

If you are a healthcare claims payer…
You are almost certainly a healthcare claims over-payer.
ClaimReturn can help fix that…at no cost to you.
The ClaimReturn Solution
ClaimReturn’s proprietary artificial intelligence platform reviews and analyzes your claims in a matter of minutes, sending up flags that our team inspects individually. Then we get fast to work on recovery. Our exclusive reporting system lets you follow our progress every step of the way. And ClaimReturn’s exhaustive analytics makes it easier to recognize future overpayments, making our recovery process both retroactive and proactive.
ClaimReturn Offerings
Post-Pay: After the claim is paid, we identify billing anomalies on a technical component and coding basis review across hundreds of logic statements within our rulesbased engine. We then recover those overpayments and return them to you.
Our Promises
COB: We identify claims whereby the plan paid, but Medicare should have in fact been the primary payer. We correct the payment ledger with Medicare as the payer and return the amounts you paid back to you.
To-Pay: After claim adjudication but before the bill has been paid, ClaimReturn provides a “final check” and makes payment recommendations preventing overpayment before any funds are sent to providers.
ClaimReturn’s collaborative approach to recovery is professional and respectful. We will never damage your provider relationships, your contracts or your own brand in the name of recovery.
We are not a collection service; we are a correction service.
We also promise full transparency in our process and analytics. We believe that the more you know, the more confident you’ll be in our work and proprietary systems.
Inaccurate claim payments are flying everywhere. We catch them.

CLAIMWISE™ & CLAIM ACCOUNTABILITY
What is ClaimWise™?
Nokomis developed its own proprietary claim review technology, ClaimWise™, because we recognized the need to customize technology for health plans’ specific needs and relationships Powered by Oracle and SOC 2®-certified, we built ClaimWise™ from the ground up, which allows us to develop unique customizations
The power of ClaimWise™
Nokomis provides an independent review of all claims, regardless of dollar amount or provider type –– we’re experts at finding inaccuracies in claims that look “okay” at face value. When a claim is submitted to ClaimWise™, it’s passed through hundreds of custombuilt rules, millions of code edit combinations, and scores of reference tables –– which can all be customized by client. This process uses intelligent claim selection to identify claims that likely contain inaccuracies, which our team of expert coders, reviewers, and analysts will then further investigate and request records as needed
Capture an average of 9% in incremental savings with claim review that uses technology AND human experts
Our unique combination of ClaimWise™ technology and experienced certified coders find claim inaccuracies that others miss, regardless of dollar amount. We review all claims in one business day, before payment. We call this approach Claim Accountability
Low friction and low risk with less than 1% in appeals
We always do the heavy lifting wherever we can, customizing our rules and edits to adapt to our clients' specific needs and integrating with any existing systems already in place.

A Collaborative Model
That Rises To Meet Your Needs
Phoenix is a modern pharmacy benefits management (PBM) company that provides brokers, TPAs, and self-funded organizations with scalable, individualized pharmacy plans that save money on prescription medications for both the plan and its members.
What Sets Us above the rest?
Open-Architecture Approach
Phoenix uses an “open-architecture” approach to plan design and management. This means you can choose the elements that work best for your needs, and nothing that you don’t. Plus, we’ll implement it in a seamless way that allows for limited member disruption.
Exclusive Pharmacy Network Contracts
We are completely independent and own 100% of our contracts, which means more flexible plan design options and better overall plan management whether you choose an Open, Preferred, or Limited Network.
Honest Rebate Opportunities
Our goal is to eliminate the questions—what drugs are included, when, and how much? With Phoenix, it’s simple: every rebatable drug, every time. Whatever arrangement best suits your needs, we’ll do rebates your way. And we pay out faster than the competition.
Customized, Comprehensive Pricing
Whether it’s a passthrough or a traditional model, Phoenix finds a way to meet your needs and save you money while offering strong plan benefits to members. We take a comprehensive approach to pricing, completely customizing a model that works for you.
Above & Beyond Customer Service

Reinventing pharmacy benefits management
A better way to empower your employees & reduce costs
Many employers believe they need a traditional PBM to manage their pharmacy benefits. We exist to offer a choice, so you can manage your plan, your way.
Our new model delivers the clinical, operational and customer service you value from a PBM, plus we offer transparent pricing and a health intelligence platform that puts the focus back on what matters most: you and your members. We believe:
The system is fundamentally broken and the solution must empower patients with transparency, choice and control.
A better pharmacy experience begins in the prescriber’s office – and a prescription is the natural gateway to the care cycle.
The pharmacy ecosystem needs to be rewritten so that incentives are aligned with better financial outcomes for pharmacies and better health outcomes for patients.
What’s different about Prescryptive Benefits?
TRANSFORMATIVE PRICING MODEL
The best partnerships are built on trust. We offer fully transparent pricing, 100% pass-through of rebates, and no hidden fees.
HEALTH INTELLIGENCE PLATFORM
Our secure, HIPAA-compliant platform connects benefit plan information, the patient, and the provider, all at the point of care, enabling better, more informed health decisions.
GUARANTEES AND ACCOUNTABILITY
We act in the best interest of our clients and their members by serving as a named fiduciary for the client’s benefit plan in the areas of formulary management, pharmacy network contracting and management, rebate contracting and payment administration, and adjudicating charges to the benefit plan. We put our fees at risk to hit aggressive financial guarantees for our clients.
76%
of unidentified or unfamiliar calls go unanswered.1 Meanwhile, 90% of text messages are read within three minutes.2
81%
of consumers want shopping for healthcare to be as easy as shopping for other services.3
As consumers shoulder more and more of the healthcare costs, the ability to shop will become imperative.
Prescryptive Benefits lowers the cost of drugs by eliminating the middlemen from the drug market and enabling consumers to take charge of their health.

Protect Plan Assets and Reverse the Progression of Chronic Kidney Disease
The costs of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and dialysis are catastrophic for health plans and their members, but proactive and preventative action pays off Renalogic enables health plans to identify and get ahead of hidden CKD risk.
Identify hidden CKD risk
ImpactIQ enables third-party administrators to identify, stratify, and quantify the hidden risks posed by CKD. By analyzing biomarkers, claims data, and member and provider-reported information, ImpactIQ identifies health plan members with diagnosed CKD, undiagnosed CKD, and those with an increased risk of developing CKD due to comorbidities and health trends.
Early, specialized clinical intervention
Prevent, delay, stop, or reverse kidney disease with ImpactCare. The only program of its kind, ImpactCare combines early identification with specialized clinical intervention and management. Registered Nurses work with members to slow the progression of kidney disease, preserve or improve kidney function, improve overall health, and reduce the cost of care for members who might otherwise progress to end-stage renal disease.
99.7 percent of participating members have avoided dialysis.
Navigate members to lower cost, highquality treatments
Managing chronic disease conditions can be overwhelming and confusing for plan members. ImpactAdvocate is a comprehensive advocacy program that helps members traverse the challenging healthcare landscape.
Supporting members with Stage 4 or higher kidney disease, ImpactAdvocate helps members understand their clinical and coverage options, as well as which treatment options might yield the highest quality results at the lowest costs.
Reduce catastrophic claim costs
Renalogic’s flexible repricing solution, ImpactProtect, protects self-funded plans from devastating, high-cost dialysis claims. Over the past 20 years, Renalogic has saved clients more than $760 million on billed charges. Today, Renalogic works with over 400 self-funded plans across the country.
ImpactProtect typically saves clients between $100,000 and $200,000 per member and keeps claims’ costs below the stop-loss specific deductible.
Clients save 82 percent on net claims.

Welcome to Prescription Savings
When you switch to Scripius, you get a full-service Pharmacy Benefits Manager (PBM) that provides cost savings, superior service, and complete access to claim-level data. Plus, we’re so confident your switch will be easy, we give you a first-year savings guarantee and a money-back satisfaction guarantee.
You get the least expensive price tag.
Our five-year average Per Member Per Month (PMPM) cost from 2016-2020 was $66.65, and we haven’t found a lower PMPM in the market.1 PMPM is the most accurate price tag because it includes all your costs: administrative fees, clinical programs, network discounts, rebates, maximum allowable cost lists, and ingredient costs. It’s the real price tag you’re paying.
You get clinical programs that work.
Beyond achieving a high generic utilization rate, our pharmacist team works to save you money in all aspects of your drug spend. Our team secures enhanced rebates and renegotiates network contracts, and they implement clinical programs like our medication management, biosimilars, and opioid management programs. All in all, our programs equated to MORE THAN $54 MILLION IN SAVINGS.
You get agile customizations with speedy market adjustments.
It’s a volatile marketplace and you need a PBM that can make dynamic reactions to surprise price increases and new pipeline medications. While some take 45 days to react to marketplace changes (the time lost can cost clients thousands of dollars), we can often make changes on day one.
You get guaranteed savings in year one.

Sharecare
All together better
At Sharecare, our mission is to collectively empower the health and well-being of every human.
Sharecare is a health & well-being hub that unifies all the elements of individual and collective health to work together so everyone can live better, longer - regardless of whether they are an employee, health plan member, patient or community member.
Designed to help people, workforces and communities optimize their well-being, our interoperable platform integrates fragmented point solutions to foster a frictionless user-friendly experience that engages people in all aspects of their health. From medication adherence and managing a chronic condition such as diabetes or heart disease to developing better eating habits, improving sleep and reducing stress, Sharecare dynamically supports each individual through the lens of their personal health journey and connects them to the right stakeholders at the right time.
We believe everyone’s health & well-being is inherently interconnected – a person’s physical health is connected to their mental and emotional health. But, also an individual’s health is connected to a greater collective –their friends, colleagues, employers, doctors, insurers, and local community. Yet, the category remains incredibly disconnected with hundreds of fragmented point solutions.
At Sharecare, we see our role as the great unifier. We unify the elements of an individual’s health –physical, mental, emotional, etc. – with the greater collective – users, employers, doctors, insurers, governments, etc. – to create one health & wellbeing hub where every piece works together so everyone can live better, longer.
We sum it up as ‘All Together Better’ – all the pieces of an individual’s health, unified with the greater health collective, in one connected system that’s working together, for better, for all.
