Managing Risk with Summit ReView

Managing risks effectively is critical to the financial health of your company. It starts with accurate risk analysis and ends with cost-effective risk management strategies. This is a complex task, but it is now easier since we have introduced Summit ReView. Summit ReView is a package of consulting services designed to provide detailed analysis of risk exposure as well as recommendations to mitigate those risks. Some of the services included in Summit ReView include:

  • Our proprietary InSight analysis, which helps you determine if you should purchase reinsurance coverage and, if so, the appropriate deductible levels and average daily maximum limitations given your claim history, contracted arrangements with network facilities and referral patterns. (See Insights into large claims.)
  • A detailed evaluation of your medical management department’s structure, policies and procedures, with comparisons to nationally recognized benchmarks and recommendations for improving program efficiencies and effectiveness.
  • Our reinsurance “Report Card,” an objective measure for comparing reinsurance options.
  • A comparison of material contractual provisions contained in the excess loss agreements issued by current leaders in the health plan reinsurance marketplace.
  • A high-level assessment of the financial competitiveness of your pharmacy benefits management program.
  • An assessment of your directors and officers/errors and omissions policy.
  • Referrals to consultants who can serve as interim executives and assist with strategic planning.
  • An analysis of your investment and cash management strategies and recommendations for improvements.

These services may be “unbundled” and pricing depends on the options selected.

With our experienced, talented people who grew up with pricing, underwriting, and administering medical excess products and our “bird’s eye view” of the marketplace, we can offer you additional perspectives that often prove invaluable in helping you develop on-target risk management strategies.
