Anthem uses Indiana nonprofit's data to inform, crosscheck care
Indianapolis Star, October 16, 2008
Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Indiana is planning to increase reimbursement to doctors by as much as 10% next year if their patients receive recommended care. Anthem said it expects to pay out about $8 million in added reimbursement for office visits for hundreds of Indianapolis-area primary-care physicians. For top-performing doctors, that could mean an extra $10,000 to $20,000 in additional reimbursement from Anthem.
