PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 6, 2006 – Cyn Gunnelson, health plan manager at Wisconsin Physicians Service (WPS) Insurance, will be the featured speaker at a session titled, Moving from Paper to Automation: A Health Plan Perspective on Provider Contract Management, at the America’s Health Insurance Plans (AHIP) Business Forum 2006, held November 6-8 at the Sheraton New York Hotel and Towers in New York.

WHO:
Cyn Gunnelson, health plan manager, WPS Insurance
WHY:
Health plans typically use paper-based or other manual methods for managing provider contracts, which often result in limited contract visibility and ineffective process control. As health plans continue to adopt new technologies, network and contract managers have found increased contract efficiency, visibility and control through automating provider contracting. This session will provide attendees, in a case study format, the best practices approach for successfully transitioning to an automated provider contracting solution.
WHERE & WHEN:
Tuesday, November 7 from 7:45 a.m. to 8:45 a.m. EDT at AHIP Business Forum 2006, held November 6-8 at the Sheraton New York Hotel and Towers in New York.
