Portico Systems and Glenridge HealthCare Solutions Announce Partnership
Streamlining Health Plan Provider Network Development for Accelerated Geographic Expansion and New Provider Network Creation

Portico Systems (Portico), the leader in Integrated Provider Management (IPM) solutions, and Glenridge HealthCare Solutions (Glenridge), a professional services and data management firm specializing in provider network development, managed care contracting and health plan operations, are announcing a new partnership. This partnership integrates Portico’s Provider Management Platform with Glenridge’s provider network development and provider contract services. The integration enables health plans to reduce their administration costs, while accelerating their growth into new geographic markets and/or rapidly creating new provider networks.

This partnership provides health plans with two distinct advantages: 1) it enables health plans to use Glenridge’s provider network development and contracting services to quickly engage and gather the necessary provider information for geographic expansion and/or new network development, 2) the integration enables health plans to seamlessly add updated provider and contract information to Portico’s provider source of truth and maintain this information through automated workflows.

“When our clients are looking for ways to quickly stand-up, serve and maintain new products and networks for a new market, the Portico and Glenridge partnership supply those capabilities,” said Nanci Ziegler, Executive Vice President, Market Strategy and Business Development, Portico Systems. Our partnership has proven itself at our mutual clients, through an integrated provider management strategy; our clients can reduce their administrative costs and increase their efficiency in creating new products and networks for geographic expansion.”

“We are looking forward to continuing to work with Portico,” said Terry Spoleti, Principal, Glenridge HealthCare Solutions. “Our organizations provide complementary software and services to our health plan clients. We are excited by the opportunity to help our clients streamline administrative processes and enhance provider and contract data management, while helping them to build the provider networks they need to compete in the market.”
