“We have been overly impressed with VIE Healthcare’s approach to our purchased service agreements. We begin with a retroactive audit of our existing agreements and reconciliation of any discrepancies and overpayments through VIE Healthcare’s Invoice ROI™ Technology.

From there VIE Healthcare’s Invoice ROI™ Technology continues to review invoices regularly to help avoid any future discrepancies.

VIE Healthcare® has able to identify hundreds of thousands of dollars in discrepancies. Because they analyze invoices at the line item level, VIE Healthcare® have the ability to quickly take utilization and usage trends to produce RFPs allowing us to re-negotiate new agreements resulting in further cost reductions.
