A broadcast on WSAU in Wisconsin, “Collections, credit threats, a lawsuit: Patients pursued for medical bills their alternative insurance plan says they don’t owe,” referenced a study published in the February 2019 issue of The American Journal of Managed Care^®. The study, “Why Aren’t More Employers Implementing Reference-Based Pricing Benefit Design?,” found low adoption of reference-based pricing (RBP) benefit design amongt employers, which indicates that redesign of RBP may be necessary to overcome barriers to adoption.
