FLORHAM PARK, N.J. and CONCORD, Calif., April 20, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Conduent Incorporated (Nasdaq: CNDT), a global technology-led business solutions and services company, today announced the launch of the Shield Provider Portal, a new self-service technology solution that enables medical providers to view the adjudication status and payment information related to workers compensation and auto casualty claims across multiple payers. The Shield Provider Portal is offered through a collaboration with Jopari Solutions, a leading provider of eBilling and ePayment solutions for the workers compensation, auto injury and group health markets.
The Shield Provider Portal is a unique solution allowing providers to see medical bill review transactions (powered by Conduent’s Strataware®) alongside eBills and ePayments (powered by Jopari) through a single-entry point that eliminates the need to access multiple systems. As part of Conduent’s Strataware Medical Bill Review platform, the new, easy-to-use portal drives efficiency by reducing customer service calls and duplicate claims.
“Jopari Solutions is proud to partner with Conduent to bring to market the Shield Provider Portal,” added Steve Stevens, CEO of Jopari. “We have been singularly focused for 20 years on improving the interactions between the diverse stakeholders involved in medical claims processing and this collaboration is a significant addition to those efforts.”
The Shield Provider Portal streamlines steps for providers while addressing the most common reasons for them to initiate customer service calls: verifying claim information, checking the status of bills submitted for payment and reviewing the Explanation of Review to understand payment decisions. In addition to resolving some of the most common billing inquiries on their own, the Shield Provider Portal gives providers the ability to easily access payer-specific frequently asked questions.
“Our strategic investments in collaborations such as this one with Jopari, continue to strengthen Conduent’s end-to-end service framework for some of the largest casualty organizations in the nation. The Shield Provider Portal is the latest innovation to create efficiencies and cost savings for our clients by transitioning phone interactions to self-service. The new solution also creates seamless online experience for providers,” said Randall King, President Commercial Solutions at Conduent.
For more than 40 years, Conduent has been a trusted partner to insurers and third-party administrators and serves four of the five top US workers compensation insurers.
