National Health Insurer Report Cards: Disturbing Payer Trends
The National Health Insurer Report Cards (NHIRC) is an annual report sponsored by the AMA that looks into financial waste, timeliness and accuracy of claims due to common insurance payer tactics. Many of the big payers are represented in the report cards - Blue Cross, Blue Shield, Anthem, Aetna, Cigna, United HealthCare and Medicare.
From the 2011 report findings, it's likely one or more of these payers are causing you trouble (whether you realize it or not). The report cards allow a glimpse at who is notorious for paying claims late, requiring mounds of paperwork, using underhanded tricks to under-pay contracted fee rates when you're not looking and more.
