Dialysis and related costs are some of the fastest growing expenses in medical care. Nowhere is the burden felt more than in the self funded community. In a marketplace where two providers control over 60% of all services, it is not surprising that the treatment rate (the largest component of dialysis bills) increased on average 26.5% in 2008 alone. Epogen®, a common adjunct to dialysis, with markups commonly in excess of 700%, can add $100,000 or more to some bills. It is clear that using a blanket approach like benefit limits, abitrary and fixed U&R reimbursement rates and standard network discounts is not the solution. Our largest program averages discounts over 80%.

In addition to cost burdens, many members, employers and those who serve the self funded are often not aware of the potential savings and health benefits of home treatment modalities. Nocturnal home hemodialysis, for example, may result in life expectancy comparable or better than cadaveric transplant.

With almost a decade in the industry, DCC has the experience and expertise to help you navigate the complex waters of dialysis cost and treatment options. Unlike some of our competitors who offer a one size fits all solution, we work with you to find the solution that is best for you and your members. We offer a truly comprehensive package and follow up with service that goes well beyond paying the claim.
