MARATHON HEALTH REFERRALS
Why Value-Driven Healthcare Referrals?
The price for most healthcare services has no correlation with quality, yet choosing the best place for care is one of the most impactful decisions your employees can make in their healthcare journey.
Decisions are often made with insufficient information, influenced by healthcare providers who are incentivized to refer within the system, and not based on objective measures of quality and cost.
“In the old days, I would give a referral to the patient, and I wouldn’t necessarily know whether or not they went to the specialist until my next visit. Our referral team stays on top of it, and it really helps with patient follow-up.”
— William Klein, MD, Regional Medical Director at Marathon Health
