PrimaryHealth Selects PH TECH for BPO and Primary Core System Partnership

Multi-phase implementation designed to help meet the needs of local community

For Immediate Release

July 27, 2017 – Salem, OR – PrimaryHealth of Josephine Country (http://www.primaryhealthfamily.com) has decided to migrate from their current claims system, to PH TECH’s (http://www.phtech.com) key core systems and support platform. PH TECH’s core system allows PrimaryHealth and PH TECH staff to tightly collaborate and jointly administer health plan functions.

Customers who select to migrate to PH TECH’s model wish to overcome limitations they encounter in their current claims system. They find the usability attributes and direct support of PH TECH to be in-line with their mission, and consequently are willing to engage in a core system migration to PH TECH. They typically recognize the PH TECH platform as a product that is properly developed to support the needs of their organization and community.

“PH TECH believes in the local healthcare community. We see ourselves as champions for community-based health plans and desire to do our part in making healthcare local again. This partnership with PrimaryHealth falls right in line with our mission to be a part of this ambitious goal. We look forward to helping PrimaryHealth achieve their mission of providing excellent care to the people in and around Josephine County,” said PH TECH CEO, Nate Perrizo.

There will be a multi-phase implementation process, during which PH TECH will perform several service functions like configuration, paper claim receipt/validation, claim payment and remittance, and EDI. PH TECH will provide services and support through the configuration and setup of the Community Integration Manager platform for PrimaryHealth, administering of medical claims, and transition of responsibility for medical claims administration from PH TECH to PrimaryHealth. PH TECH will also help with the eventual administration of dental and mental health claims.
