Consultation for Contract Compliance

Sometimes it seems as if there are more contracts to manage than patients, and non-acute contract compliance is complex and requires specific expertise. Henry Schein's custom eCatalog tools help drive non-acute contract compliance. Our eCatalog solution provides a way to define and institute best practices, enhance vendor relationships, manage network controls, and maintain commitment volumes where applicable.

Consultation to Navigate Reimbursement Changes

Henry Schein Medical's Fully Integrated Service Team works to effectively leverage the industry knowledge of our manufacturing partners to ensure all levels of your health care organization are consistently aware of reimbursement and technology changes.

For the Independent Practice

The Henry Schein customer support models advocate and articulate program benefits for independent practices and sites. Henry Schein has specific programs with organizations including the American Medical Association (AMA) and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), which support independent practices. Through specialized campaigns and initiatives, the customer support teams can assist in driving the value of the independent practice within health care.

These customer support teams include:

• Field Teams: Henry Schein Field Sales Consultants are regionally based and are assigned to meet the needs and goals of our customers. The consultants visit health care facilities or participate in teleconferences on a regular schedule as required. During these meetings, the consultants can discuss the value of our partner programs by preparing cost analyses and highlighting value-added benefits.
• Telesales: For customers who require additional support, Henry Schein is supported by more than 100 telesales representatives who manage customer relationships. The telesales representatives have worked with our partner and the medical society partnerships on marketing and enrollment campaigns highlighting the benefits of these programs.
• Internal Support: Henry Schein has a designated Contracting team for our partners. This team reviews contracts on an ongoing basis and reviews the contract listing to ensure practice locations are accessing eligible contracts and that pricing is consistent across all accounts. The Contracting team also executes the enrollment process, adhering to the Enrollment Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) document.

Henry Schein recognizes that the independent health care facility today seeks a trusted advisor who understands its needs specific to the independent market.
