As the exposure to out-of-network claims increases, the need arises to find additional network solutions to help off-set the large costs associated with these claims. This exposure, which we define as "white space" can become minimized with the use of contracted networks solutions such as Beech Street Complementary Network.
The Solution The Beech Street Complementary Network offers expanded network access for patients who seek services from providers that do not participate in the client's primary or proprietary network. Participating providers agree to extend the negotiated rate to clients who offer the opportunity for direction and provide an identification card that includes a Beech Street or Beech Street affiliate logo.
