The Exchanges

The Dr Bill Exchanges are the leading independent, open market service managing and moving medical bills and associated information between insurance payers and business partners such as re-pricing vendors, analytics vendors, and government. We work with some of the largest household-name insurers, PPOs, and specialty vendors in the U. S.

MedExchange

Dr Bill MedExchange, our original Exchange, has access to millions of WC and Auto bills, a growing name-brand customer list, a robust implementation and a record of service and responsiveness. It's the only viable open market solution to bill re-pricing, with a strong and growing roster of network, specialty, negotiation and bill review vendors.

TrialExchange

As a Payer, you would love to see what vendors could really deliver on your bills before making commitments. So give us the format of a paid bill file, and the file that you would like to use (ex. last month's). TrialExchange will do the implementation, the operations, and the reporting. You evaluate the results.

HealthExchange

Dr Bill HealthExchange is our latest implementation, and will start trading bills in the near future. The HealthExchange has all the flexibility of its family but is built to handle the volume and data needs of its market. It can be used on the front end for integration of clearinghouses, to the back end for out-of-network bills, and anything in between.

MedSelect

Dr Bill MedSelect is a program supporting pre-packaged cost containment solutions. These combine the platform of MedExchange with a starter set of selected vendors to offer a complete re-pricing program. Now any payer can gain a powerful and extensible solution quickly and with little investment.

An Open Market Alternative

The Dr Bill Exchanges present payers and vendors with the only viable open market alternative to medical bill re-pricing. In some markets, it has become the only viable vehicle to build a national program without defaulting to the usurious business model of an oligopoly.

Today, in each line of business, the bill re-pricing market is a choice between two poor alternatives: point-to-point connections and complex and constantly-changing software to manage the bills; or the convenience of a proprietary one-stop-shopping solution that has been constructed to maximize the vendor's revenue and control. In neither case can an open market principle apply: in the first case, the technology constraints limit the number of vendors a given payer can manage. In the second, the vast majority of vendors are off-limits to the payer, and the price is high.

As you may have noticed, over time fewer and fewer of these choices are available, and oligopoly control more and more of the vendor market. This is good for them, and probably for some of their selected vendors. But it is not so good for payers and for the excluded vendors that may have better offerings but are getting squeezed out of the market. The business model is at best adversarial. It's also not good for the providers and patients, nor for transparency.

Dr Bill Exchanges offer a natural and harmonious business model. It manages and delivers bills very well, and with great operational support. That is all we charge for. The business relationships between payers and vendors is direct -- and unimpeded by any technology constraints. Every time a payer joins the exchange, it is better and more attactive to vendors. When vendors join, it makes that many more business opportunities for payers. The result is an open market community in which superior re-pricing solutions can be constantly improved and changed to reflect changing legislation and market conditions.

By electing to use Dr Bill Exchanges for re-pricing, you help not just yourself but the entire re-pricing community. And that turns around and makes a better future offering to you.
