Services Overview |
|
| |
Although
companies operating in
the Med / Surg sector
of the health care industry
face the same challenges,
they may use slightly
different approaches
to solving problems and
working with their trading
partners. HCBS has developed
a very flexible and powerful
set of tools, processes
and procedures to manage
the ongoing transaction
processing lifecycle.
This flexibility allows
us to offer a “cafeteria-plan”
approach to providing
services that let companies
select the products and
services that they need
based upon their company’s
requirements and resources.
HCBS
has invested significant
time and resources and
placed great emphasis
on making our solutions
cost effective and profitable.
That means that savings
may be garnered through
improvements in the accuracy
of calculating sales
commissions, GPO fees
and distributor chargebacks.
In fact, we have the
most comprehensive and
flexible sales attribution
system in the industry.
Additional benefits are
gained through general
improvements in operational
proficiency and through
reduced sales cycles
that allow your Sales
Organization to close
the right deals more
quickly. Based upon our
experience with Med /
Surg manufacturers, it
is possible to save enough
money to pay for our
services or a portion
thereof by reducing rebate
claim payments, GPO fees,
and sales commissions
through accurate rebate
reconciliation, transaction
settlement and compensation
distribution.
Our
“cafeteria-plan” approach
will allow you to select
the services and products
that your company needs.
As long as we have the
requisite data to provide
a selected processing
or reporting service,
then we can do so. Our
goal is to establish
the most efficient and
cost effective operational
structure for managing
ongoing and evolving
requirements. Please
contact us if you wish
to learn more about the
services that HCBS can
offer your company and
how they can help you
to reach your goals and
objectives.

Facility Identification |
| |
One
of the greatest
challenges that
health care companies
(manufacturers,
distributors,
GPO's, IDN's,
providers, etc.)
deal with is
identification.
Difficulties
in idenfication
include products,
contracts, units
of measure, facilities
and other shared
content. However,
automatically
identifying facility
information with
certainty is
the most problematic.
The identifiers,
sources and variants
for facility
information is
spread out over
the entire industry. Facility
identification
is critical to
the management
of distributor
and GPO relationships.
HCBS now has over
900,000 facilities
standardized in
its Universal Database. |

GPO Membership |
| |
HCBS is
working very
hard to support
our client's
efforts to
work more closely
with Group
Purchasing
Organizations
and their Members.
Our Identity™
and Membership™
facilities
working in
concert with
selected products
from our DataWorks™
product group
can really
help those
manufacturers
who struggle
with GPO reporting
requirements.
More manufacturers
are
executing
GPO contracts
to expand
their customer
base. However,
the only
way to keep
those contracts
is to administer
them properly.
If you don't,
you
could either
lose your
GPO contract
and a growing
base of business,
or lose money
by overpaying
chargebacks
and fees. |
