What's New at ECOH
Select Solutions UPDATE
September 5, 2018
ECOH, the Employers Coalition on Health, introduced last January a new innovative bundled payment product call Select Solutions. This product has, thus far, dramatically reduced the cost for MRIs, CT Scans and PET Scans by as much as 65% over in-network cost in a hospital setting. It has also saved employer sponsored health plans and their enrolled employees thousands of dollars on routine, out-patient procedures and surgeries that can be performed either at Rockford Ambulatory Surgery Center or OrthoIllinois.
ECOH member companies offering Select Solutions eliminate patient out-of-pocket costs for those patients seeking these services at Select Solutions sites. No deductibles, no coinsurance payments and medical care allowing patients to maximize time at home to recuperate in a more comfortable location. Many employers also provide transportation service for patients to offset the inconvenience of travel to an unfamiliar place.
NOW ECOH has more exciting news! We have added the availability of colonoscopies and endoscopies at Rockford Gastroenterology to Select Solutions. Plan members who are part of Select Solutions will pay no deductibles and no out-of-pocket cost regardless of the type of colonoscopy you need. Self-funded Health Plans save more than 50% of in-network costs if performed at a hospital.
Select Solutions is now available to health plans utilizing other PPOs instead of ECOH!
Save money for your employees and your health plan when your employees choose to have designated procedures done at Select Solutions providers!
