"Vermont First" Designed for Vermont Residents Looking for Local Health Care and Coverage; Unique Partnership Among Physicians, Hospital and Insurer
(firmenpresse) - BURLINGTON, VT -- (Marketwire) -- 11/22/11 -- MVP Health Care and Vermont Managed Care have entered into an innovative partnership to provide Vermont residents with "Vermont First," a unique approach to deliver high quality care through a Vermont focused network of providers.
Under the partnership, Vermont Managed Care (VMC) and its network of high-quality health care providers have more control, share more data and partner with a prominent regional insurer, MVP Health Care.
"Vermont First represents the future of health care through an innovative partnership that aligns the interests of MVP Health Care with providers for the benefit of Vermont's consumers," said David Henderson, Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer of MVP Health Care. "Only through such 'win-win' relationships will we rise to the challenge of true health care reform that lowers cost and enhances quality."
"By combining MVP's emphasis on wellness and our focus on high quality care, we have put together a program which will offer our patients the best of all worlds," said Todd Moore, president, Vermont Managed Care. "Most importantly, our patients will get great care at great prices in Vermont."
Bill Little, MVP's Vermont Vice President, added that his company worked closely with Vermont Managed Care to develop the range of choices, which include four distinct plans that include an HMO-style plan, two high deductible options and a hybrid choice.
"To offer Vermont residents and employers competitive pricing, we developed a partnership that includes robust care coordination by VMC with an eye toward leveraging local health care resources which in turn helps control costs," Little said.
Moore, of Vermont Managed Care, added: "The most important attributes of Vermont First are simply that members will get access to care supported by a network of providers willing to be more accountable and coordinated in service to plan members throughout the state at a competitive price. It's really the best of all worlds."
