MasterFile Individuals

Complying with medical loss ratio regulations requires that health plans reduce administrative costs.

To do so, a health plan must have the most up to date accurate provider data.

The HMS Provider MasterFile™ contains more than 5 million healthcare practitioners and serves as the cornerstone for Health Market Science’s suite of compliance solutions providing credentialing and demographic information about US healthcare providers. Our health plan clients rely on the HMS MasterFile™ to help optimize core business processes including provider file maintenance, claims auto-adjudication and credentialing.

Our back end and front end solutions help tackle regulatory compliance challenges with rapid verification that a health plan is making decisions and conducting business with trusted provider information.
