Last week, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released preliminary results for the first year of the Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement (CJR) program, which revealed that participating hospitals earned $37.6 million in reconciliation payments.

MedBen Analytics had strong client representation on the payment list, including a top 30 earner and a top 50 earner. In all, nearly 50% of MedBen Analytics clients received payments after the first year of the CJR program.

MedBen Analytics leverages the client experience by expanding report options for all clients based on the request of any client. This approach allows all clients to gain from the experience of other clients. The MedBen Analytics unique portal approach has been popular with users who can quickly access and explore variations in the cost of care at all points in the episode.

As participating hospitals have gained knowledge from the first year of CJR, so too has MedBen Analytics. The feedback received from our clients has enabled us to make regular changes to our software, offering providers even greater scope and depth in reporting options. These improvements will help hospitals to build on their efforts in year two.

We invite you to see for yourself what current MedBen Analytic clients already know. To set up a demonstration of our reporting platform, please contact MedBen President & COO Kurt Harden at 888-633-2364 or email kharden@medben.com.
