the number and type of MROs and/or DMEs ‘offered’ to both represented and unrepresented claimants when they search for a provider on MedCo;
the growing use of administration agencies and how this can be overseen;
fixed cost medical reports; and
changes to improve the quality of reports and on how medical reports for represented claimants are sourced.
