RAM Technologies, Inc. and Medicare Advantage-in-a-Box Ready for CMS Changes to Value Based Insurance Design Model


Overall, the aim of the program is a complete modernization of the Medicare Advantage program and we are pleased to be able to provide our clients with the tools needed to achieve this objective.

RAM Technologies, Inc., the perennial leader in the development of enterprise software for healthcare payers administering Medicare Advantage and Special Needs plans, is proud to announce the value based benefit capabilities available with HEALTHsuite Advantage™ and Medicare Advantage-in-a-Box. The advanced functionality provides health plans with the tools they need to participate in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ (CMS) Value-Based Insurance Design (VBID) model.

The advanced value based benefits processing capabilities available with HEALTHsuite Advantage and Medicare Advantage-in-a-Box enable health plans to identify patients who are eligible for the program and then adjust their patient responsibility accordingly. The system provides functionality to identify specific co-payments, coinsurance and / or deductibles that can be waived for patients participating in pre-defined initiatives. VBID functionality includes the ability to reduce cost shares and add supplemental benefits for enrollees with chronic conditions.

In 2020, CMS has expanded the scope of the VBID model, allowing for more health plans to participate including special needs plans (D-SNPs and I-SNPs). Additionally, the list of conditions has increased to include Chronic and Socioeconomic factors and the benefits have also been expanded to include telehealth and Social Determinants of Health (SDOH). 2020 has also seen the elimination of cost shares for high value services as well as disease specific Care Management programs.

In addition, 2021 will see even more changes to the VBID Model, including the incorporation of Hospice / End-of-Life Care which will require the ability to accurately identify members in coaching / disease management; waive the patient responsibility for procedures related to the coaching program; provide support for multiple benefit definitions; and more.

“The goal of the VBID program is to reduce overall costs and enhance the quality of care for beneficiaries. The VBID capabilities available with HEALTHsuite Advantage and Medicare Advantage-in-a-Box meet these needs and provide our clients with the ability to apply the program specific benefits to their membership,” stated Robert A. Tulio, President of RAM Technologies. “Overall, the aim of the program is a complete modernization of the Medicare Advantage program and we are pleased to be able to provide our clients with the tools needed to achieve this objective.”

How To Save On Auto Insurance Premiums


News Image

“Drivers can get cheaper car insurance if they follow some simple strategies and tips. Check our website to find out more tips and strategies for lowering the premiums,” said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.

Car insurance premiums are determined after analyzing a multitude of factors. Some of them are under direct policyholder’s control, thus helping him to keep prices under control or even lower the costs. Obtaining and comparing car insurance quotes from https://compare-autoinsurance.org/ will help policyholders find better offers.

In order to get better prices, a client should:


  • Adjust deductibles to a higher level. Deductibles represent the sums of money a client pays pay from his own pocket before the insurance company intervenes and covers the rest. By selecting a higher deductible, the client will get cheaper premiums. Many insurance companies allow the driver to select the deductible and the quote will be instantly updated. Install anti-theft devices. Lowering the risk of having the car stolen will be greatly rewarded by insurance companies. Comprehensive car insurance is the policy which covers car theft. And it is really pricey. By adding anti-theft and tracking devices, premiums will be significantly lowered by the insurer. Look for the best devices on the market and read some reviews.
  • Make the vehicle safer. Auto insurance companies rely on statistics all the time. If the client’s car is not considered quite the safest car, he will have to pay more. In order to diminish financial toil, some improvements can be made. Install safety devices that protect both the driver and the passenger in the eventuality of a car crash, different sensors, and warning devices. Having cheaper premiums will help the driver recover the investment. Many online questionnaires ask about installed anti-theft and safety features, in order to provide a discount.
  • Park the car in a safe location. During online quotes, the driver may be asked to provide the address or ZIP code for the place where the car is usually parked. The place where the car is parked is a top influential factor. It is strictly correlated with car theft frequency and vandalism. The best place to park the car overnight is inside a locked garage. However, the second-best choice is in a well-monitored parking lot.
  • Combine auto insurance policies. Bundling insurance policies is a smart way to get cheaper coverage on all combined policies. Usually, it is cheaper to combine multiple insurance services or multiple vehicles under the same contract. However, a policyholder should compare prices after and before bundling and check if he will really save money.

How To Get And Compare Car Insurance Quotes


News Image

“Now it is very easy to get car insurance quotes online, compare prices and get the best deal. And it only takes several minutes,” said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.

Car insurance rates are calculated based on the risk of insuring a person. They directly influence the premiums and overall insurance costs. In order to have an idea of how much they are expected to pay, clients should get free quotes from https://compare-autoinsurance.org/ and compare prices!

There are several rules to follow when comparing quotes:


  • Understand the main factors analyzed by insurance companies. Multiple details will be taken into consideration when analyzing a client and determining premiums. The most influential factors are car’s make and model, driving history, demographic factors, recent claims, and traffic violations and coverage options. Each factor will be analyzed, quantified and added to a premium-calculus formula.
  • After understanding his own risk profile, it is time to get quotes. After understanding how each factor influences the cost, it is time to get quotes and compare prices. There are several ways to get insurance quotes: calling an agent, phone calls or online quotes. Online quotes have become more popular in recent years. Even so, a driver will have to choose whether he will ask quotes from an insurer’s website or from a brokerage website.
  • Brokerage websites will help drivers get multiple quotes with a single search session. Furthermore, all results are obtained using the same data and for the same product. This gives no room for errors. Clients who use brokerage websites can quickly sort offers by prices. But do not be guided only by price. Check what other benefits and bonuses can be obtained by signing a contract
  • There are several easy ways to lower the premiums. Making several changes will help drivers get better rates. Driving less than the average driver, graduating defensive driving courses or installing safety gear will greatly improve the rates. Paying bills on time and keeping a good credit score will also help.

How Car Owners Can Obtain The Best Online Car Insurance Quotes And Save Money


News Image

“Online car insurance quotes can help drivers find the best insurance deals possible without paying unreasonable premiums,” said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.

Compare-autoinsurance.org has launched a new blog post that explains how drivers can obtain the best car insurance quotes and save money.

For more info and free quotes, please visit https://compare-autoinsurance.org/get-best-online-car-insurance-quotes/

When it comes to shopping for car insurance, the internet is the best ally a driver can have. There are many brokerage sites that can help drivers find car insurance deals that suit them.

In order to get the best car insurance quotes, drivers should:


  • Manage past traffic violations. Insurance companies will look at the driving record of a driver before determining his premiums. Multiple traffic violations penalties for incidents like speeding, car accidents, DUI’s or even illegal parking will make the insurance rates to be really high. Drivers should contact a lawyer and see if they can remove old traffic violations. After those traffic violations are removed, drivers should compare online quotes once more and see how much the insurance rates have dropped.
  • Provide honest and accurate info. To obtain accurate online quotes, drivers should provide accurate details about their vehicle. Usually, drivers will be asked about their car make, model, year of production, installed safety devices, VIN number, etc. Drivers will also have to complete personal details about themselves. Data like age, occupation, driving history, etc. are important for insurance companies. Drivers should not forget to mention their traffic violations. Although, traffic violations will lead to an increase in the premium rates, not mentioning them can lead to penalties that are more severe. In many cases, the insurance companies will drop a customer that lied to them.
  • Complete only complex and detailed questionnaires. Drivers are recommended to work with complex online forms in order to get accurate quotes. Good online questionnaires are usually divided into several categories like vehicle, driver, driving history, and coverage options.

News Image

“We are excited to be a part of the changes John Hancock is making through its alignment with Human API, as they dovetail with NFP’s overall innovation initiatives,” said Mike James, president of NFP individual solutions and PartnersFinancial.

NFP, a leading insurance broker and consultant that provides property and casualty (P&C), corporate benefits, retirement and individual solutions, today announced a strategic collaboration with John Hancock to significantly streamline the life insurance buying experience. NFP will offer a simple way for clients of NFP advisors to share access to their electronic health records (EHR) digitally and in real time.

Through its longstanding relationship with John Hancock, NFP will have access to Human API’s leading health data platform, which allows for EHR data collection from over 85 percent of US healthcare providers (health systems, hospitals, clinics and physician offices). NFP advisors will be able to leverage this platform with their clients so they can share their current and historical medical information via Human API’s digital, secure, HIPAA-compliant authorization process. This platform adds simplicity and convenience to the buying experience, allowing clients to control their personal information and give John Hancock underwriters instant access to critical medical information (lab results, medications, vital measurements and conditions). The result is a considerably shorter and more efficient case life cycle.

“We are excited to be a part of the changes John Hancock is making through its alignment with Human API, as they dovetail with NFP’s overall innovation initiatives,” said Mike James, president of NFP individual solutions and PartnersFinancial. “Instead of waiting weeks for an attending physician statement, and having potentially uncomfortable conversations with applicants about sensitive medical information, we are empowering our advisors with an easier process that ultimately creates a superior buying experience for their clients.”

“Transforming the life insurance industry by simplifying the purchase process and reducing the time from application to issue is a top priority for John Hancock,” said Susan Ghalili, vice president, underwriting transformation and chief underwriter of John Hancock Insurance. “We are always looking to work with like-minded distribution partners and it’s great to see NFP embracing new technology and offering their customers the level of service they expect in today’s digital marketplace.”

Endovascular Consultants of Colorado (ECCO), The Best Endovascular Specialists in Colorado, Launches New Patient-Centric Website


Best Endovascular Group

Worldclass Endovascular Care

ECCO provides advanced vascular and interventional radiology services on an outpatient basis, serving patients while working collaboratively with referring physician colleagues.

ECCO, a top endovascular center in Colorado, has launched a new patient-centric website. The new site, online at http://www.endovascularexperts.com, is designed to provide Denver area patients with high-quality information about today’s advanced, minimally-invasive arterial, venous, cancer, men and women’s treatments, and other leading-edge radiology therapies.

ECCO, which stands for Endovascular Consultants of Colorado, is a newly formed practice in Lone Tree, Colorado that focuses on interventional radiology, specifically for patients with the following disease states: metastatic cancer to the liver, peripheral arterial disease, benign prostatic hypertrophy, uterine fibroids, pelvic congestion syndrome, venous insufficiency, venous obstruction, non healing wounds and leg swelling. ECCO’s main priority for their new website was therefore to provide patients with accurate, helpful information about treatments and how their practice helps patients to achieve their best outcomes. “Our entire team is extremely pleased with how the site has turned out,” said Dr. Aaron Kovaleski, ECCO’s Founder and one of its physicians.

ECCO physician, Dr. Charles Nutting added, “Our goal is to provide patients with useful information about the treatments we offer in a patient-friendly, easy-to-understand format. It was important for us to align our message and services with our patient’s online search habits as most patients now research their doctors and procedures online.”

The ECCO website features educational articles, videos and descriptions of the center’s leading, minimally-invasive treatments for different types of men and women’s diseases with a focus on peripheral artery disease and liver cancer treatments. The site is easy to navigate and features an original, visually-appealing design created by innovative healthcare growth strategy and design firm, Paramount/MD. Patients can visit the site to learn more about interventional radiology and cancer treatment by going to: http://www.endovascularexperts.com.

Treatment Options

Similar to radiologists, ECCO helps to diagnose cancers and other disorders. As Denver’s interventional oncology specialists, the practice focuses on high-end, minimally-invasive procedures used to treat different types of cancer. These procedures include microwave and cryoablation, chemoembolization or radioembolization of tumors, portal vein embolization, and treatment of bony metastases. Many of these tumors occur in the liver, and these procedures allow ECCO to provide the most advanced liver cancer treatment in Colorado as well as nationally.

In addition, ECCO serves as a top peripheral vascular disease center in Colorado, specializing in lower extremity arterial revascularization, endovenous laser therapy and venous stent placement.

The center also devotes a part of its practice to the treatment of problematic women’s health issues, such as female pelvic pain due to uterine fibroids, pelvic congestion syndrome, or May-Thurner Syndrome; and men’s health issues such as benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) with prostate artery embolization (PAE), or varicocele (one of the many causes of infertility) with gonadal vein embolization.

About ECCO

ECCO is a medical practice based in Lone Tree, CO that focuses on interventional radiology and minimally invasive options for a variety of patient conditions – including oncology, wounds, leg pain, and men’s/women’s health issues. The practice is located at 8080 Park Meadows Drive, Suite 130 Lone Tree, CO 80124 in the new, state-of-the-art outpatient center, with its top-line facilities and technology and “patient-centric” approach.

Aaron Kovaleski, MD and Charles Nutting, DO are board certified in both Diagnostic Radiology and Vascular and Interventional Radiology. They have both practiced for a collective 33 years, receiving excellent feedback from the doctors and patients they have worked with. ECCO specialists consult with patients and their primary doctors, perform the appropriate procedure, and follow up with them just as any surgeon would—though not within the boundaries of a large diagnostic radiology group. Instead, ECCO is a free-standing interventional radiology practice, dedicated to patient-centric care and staying on top of and in front of the most exciting advances in the treatment of a variety of women’s and men’s health issues, with a strong focus on lower extremity arterial disease and liver cancer.

ECCO is the only Office Based Laboratory (OBL) in the Denver metro area doing arterial interventions of any kind, including leg revascularization. It is also the only full time, fully operational OBL in Colorado and the only practice in Colorado performing liver cancer treatments in an outpatient center. Dr. Charles Nutting leads this initiative and is nationally recognized as a leader in this field. He has been on the forefront of IR advancement in this area and he and Dr. Aaron Kovaleski are two of 40 proctors in the US for Y90 radioembolizaiton – an endovascular cancer therapy in which radioactive beads are injected through the arteries into tumors that have spread to the liver. Dr. Nutting did the first one in the US nearly 20 years ago and the 100,000 in 2019.

Dr. Nutting is one of a handful of people in the country that also performs prostate artery embolization (PAE). It treats a benign syndrome in males called benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH), and is considered one of the most technically challenging procedures in IR. He does the most of anyone in the country and travels the US training people in his techniques. To date, he has performed over 350 prostate embolizations and was recently honored to coauthor a chapter, From Patient Selection To Advanced Embolization Techniques, in his industry’s only book dedicated to PAE called, “Prostatic Artery Embolization.”

Dr. Kovaleski is a specialist, trainer, and speaker for Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) intervention. He is currently the only physician in the state of Colorado doing limb salvage in an OBL, and one of a “very small number” of physicians doing specialized below knee treatments for limb salvage. Additionally both he and Dr. Nutting are certified in wound care and skilled to treat the entire spectrum of vascular causes of wounds.

The practice works with the best oncologists, radiation oncologists, surgical oncologists, podiatrists, primary care physicians, nephrologists, endocrinologists, urologists, and ob/gyn’s in the area to provide the most advanced minimally-invasive outpatient treatment options in Colorado. The treatment center’s use of minimally-invasive procedures helps lower the cost of treatment while reducing the patient’s risks associated with more invasive treatments. ECCO is Medicare certified and they accept most types of insurance.
