This is the most important area of services to be
provided by any healthcare management and administration
or managed care organisation. Our medical team will
ensure that medical management shall be an integral part
of the services that we provide to its corporate
clients. With a proven track record in managing 650,000
members as at today, we are able to provide the medical
management in terms of quality assurance and
benchmarking and preventive programs in either one or a
combination of the following:-
-
System driven - where a set of parameters are incorporated based on
our experience having managed and administered since the
last 18 years to process the medical claims that are
submitted from the medical providers. Claims that breach
the established parameters will be scrutinized in detail
by our medical team;
-
Retrospective case management
- where the charges of medical treatment is checked and verified on the
reasonableness of the charges based on the treatment
provided by a particular medical provider. We will
ensure that the charges are justifiable with the treatment provided by the medical
provider based on the patients condition and the level
of sophistication of the said treatment. Whenever we
need to negotiate with the relevant medical provider, we
will do so with the objective of having the medical
charges reduced while maintaining the quality of medical delivery;
-
Proactive case management
- although minimal intervention is exercised, we will
advise the patient of all available options to the
patient based on the patients benefit entitlement. The
decision to choose whichever avenue of treatment will be
at the sole discretion of the patient provided they are
within the patients benefit entitlement. Further, once
we have collated the relevant data for a certain period
such as one year, we will design a relevant treatment
program in the following year for relevant patients of
selected diagnosis to follow in order to mitigate the
condition of the patient not to deteriorate further.
This includes a schedule of visits to the relevant
medical specialty by the identified patients; and
-
Preventive program - whilst part of the program has been elaborated in the
proactive case management, this program focus on
providing the patient with useful information of their
related illness and what are the dos and don'ts for them
not to aggravate their conditions, or most importantly
to prevent them from having at all. Immunisation for
children is managed and administered systematically by
us. The types of immunisation will be of those
recommended by the Ministry of Health, Malaysia.
