Business Insurance Ranks Intracorp First In Case Management For Ninth Consecutive Year

PHILADELPHIA, March 12, 2008 — For the ninth consecutive year, Intracorp has been named the nation's leading case management services provider by Business Insurance magazine in their annual ranking published March 10.

Intracorp managed approximately 1.4 million cases in 2007. “Case management services help individuals regain their health and well-being during a very difficult time in their lives,” said Margaret Aslakson, interim president for Intracorp. “We are pleased to once again be recognized as an industry leader by Business Insurance.

The organization’s case managers, most of whom are registered nurses and vocational rehabilitation specialists, work with treating physicians to coordinate appropriate, quality care, ensure patient satisfaction, improve medical outcomes, facilitate a patient's timely return to work, and decrease overall health care expenses.

For this ranking, Business Insurance defines case management as coordinating and monitoring treatment for catastrophic, complex or prolonged illnesses and injuries—including discharge planning, onsite or telephone case review and/or patient referrals—as well as managing communication among patients, providers and payers throughout the course of a claim.

Business Insurance is an industry publication that reports on corporate risk, employee benefits and managed health care issues. The annual case management survey profiles companies that deliver case management services for group health and workers' compensation programs directly to corporate or institutional employers. The ranking is based on gross revenues generated by case management services.
