We used to be surprised. But we\u2019re not anymore. But it\u2019s not a difficult problem to fix. And believe it or not, the remedy starts with the definitions of <em>everything<\/em> and <em>directly<\/em>:<\/p>\n<p><em>Everything<\/em> goes to a TPA only if you systematize the tracking of every incident, systematize the tracking of every claim to every incident, and verify every incident is going to the TPA. Everything goes <em>directly<\/em> to the TPA only if you submit everything completely and electronically. Paper forms have a way of getting lost. Phone calls have a way of getting forgotten. And here\u2019s the bonus: Everything you track and submit directly to the TPA can be reported quickly and efficiently.<\/p>\n<p>We grant you we\u2019re biased. But tracking and reporting your claims \u2014 and managing everything in one system \u2014 feels like sound business practice to us.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/apptechllc.com\/#cloud-claims\">Can we help you track and report your claims?<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We had a conversation the other day that made us think about the ways in which companies \u2014 even or maybe especially companies that use TPAs \u2014 go about reporting the incidents that spawn claims.
