Benchmark of the Week: Payer performance statistics, 2010-2011

Effective Jun 30, 2011
Published Jul 4, 2011

How do private payers stack up compared to each other and to Medicare? This chart looks at two key metrics of payer performance: first, how closely the amount on the first electronic remittance advice (ERA) tracks with the fee schedule amount expected by the provider, and second, how many days pass between claim submission and the first ERA. NOTE: All data comes from the AMA’s recently released 2011 National Health Insurer Report Card.
