Employer Direct Healthcare

Gain access to institutional buyers.

As a leading medical provider, you take pride in the personalized care you provide your patients, and you're probably happy to gain new patients on a one-by-one basis. But what if you could tap into a national pool of patients from payers who are eager to send you not just one patient, but many patients? EDHC is already doing this for many top medical providers across the country. It's time you joined our network to access this growing market of institutional buyers.

Realize incremental patient volume.

If you're trying to increase your patient volume, then you're probably already marketing your medical facility with online outlets, billboards and advertisements, but those efforts won't bring you any new qualified patients unless you have been approved as an "in-network" provider by the patient's health plan. That problem is compounded when you try to attract patients from outside your local area, because you are even more likely to be considered "out-of-network."

EDHC is your solution to this problem, because when you join our provider network, then "out-of-network" no longer applies. You can attract patients from within your local area and around the country, no matter what the patient's insurance. Even more, we can actually bring patients to you from around the country. No in-flight magazine can claim to do that!

Fill excess capacity.

Even the best medical providers and facilities find themselves with empty beds from time to time, owing to the normal ebb and flow of patient volume over time. Hotels and airlines face this issue too, but they have capacity management resources they use to drive customer volume. And now, through EDHC, you have a capacity-management resource as well. EDHC can help fill those empty beds by promoting your medical facility to our national customer base of institutional buyers. You can actively throttle up your visibility on our platform in anticipation of low-capacity periods, helping you fill beds when you want to most.

Improve patient case mix.

With Employer Direct Healthcare, you can improve your case mix for more stability and predictability in managing your medical facility. With EDHC, you always have the opportunity to review patient cases, offer a pre-treatment consult, then accept the patients you want to treat or decline cases that you don't think are good candidates. You always have control over whom you choose to treat, while improving your case mix.

Enhance your reputation with a national audience.

Unlike other medical facilities who aren't part of our network, you can actually attract patients from around the country, no matter what their insurance. That's because EDHC operates outside the normal insurance limitations, enabling you to enhance your well-earned national reputation by treating patients from across the U.S. -- patients who learn about you through EDHC and who are happy to come to you for treatment.

Our Care Coordinators manage patient transfers so you don't have to.

As you may know, there's a lot of management that goes into receiving patients from another facility or health plan. There are phone calls, emails, medical records to transfer, appointments to schedule, communications with other medical providers, even travel arrangements, and more. Fortunately, we take the lead in managing the patients we bring to you. We know what it takes to transfer patients to you, ready to receive their medical care, and then we help facilitate their transfer back into their primary care system after you've completed their treatment. In short, we handle as many of the details as possible, so you can focus on what you do best: providing excellent medical care.
