ECS (electronic claims submission) paradigm shift revisited: the next phase.

Abstract

Public demand for healthcare cost reductions has not only risen to the top of the political agenda this fall, it has become strident. Legislators are under pressure to act quickly. Suddenly, electronic claims submission is being understood for its ability to lop billions off of the staggering cost of healthcare administration. Several initiatives are now in the works that are set to bring ECS into widespread use.
