MEDai, Inc. Wins National Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association Contract

ORLANDO, Fla., Aug. 26 -- MEDai, Inc., an Orlando-based firm providing predictive modeling services to the healthcare industry, announced this week that it has been selected by Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association (BCBSA) as a national partner for predictive modeling services for participating BCBSA licensed companies ("Blue Plans").

BCBSA's selection of MEDai came after a nationwide review of companies that offer computer-based analysis, which can accurately provide health plans such vital information as predicting population groups at high risk for future health issues, increasing the benefits of medical case management, providing cost reduction alternatives, and more.

Jody Voss, Executive Director of Business Development of Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association, stated, "Other industries have developed predictive modeling capabilities to better project patterns of behavior, resource consumption, and demand. In healthcare, predictive modeling enables managed care organizations to deliver proactive support, with the goal of producing better outcomes at reduced costs. BCBSA conducted an exhaustive review of providers in this highly specialized field and were impressed by the results of MEDai's High Risk Predictor System (HRP)."

"MEDai's HRP product offers healthplans the opportunity to evaluate potential high risk at the individual member level, support actuarial/underwriting functions within the organization, and support care management and intervention initiatives," said MEDai president and co-founder Steve Epstein. "Our focus has been packaging our award-winning AI technology with a user-friendly interface resulting in a work flow oriented tool that allows our clients to help identify the actionable members within their population and to help providers improve outcomes, resulting in reduced costs and increased satisfaction," he added.
