Mitchell International, a leading provider of technology, connectivity and information solutions to the Property & Casualty (P&C) claims and Collision Repair industries, today announced the addition of Adva-Net as a new strategic partner to SmartAdvisor, its portfolio of Workers’ Compensation solutions. Adva-Net’s specialty solution obtains discounts through both prospective and retrospective applications of its provider agreements, allowing clients to generate significant reductions on pain management bills.
“We’re pleased to expand our roster of strategic network partners with the addition of Adva-Net,” said Nina L. Smith-Garmon, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Mitchell’s Casualty Solutions Group. “This new offering provides another layer of targeted options to improve claimant outcomes while increasing operational efficiency.”
Adva-Net’s specialty pain management PPO network, enabled by a custom Mitchell bridge, provides Mitchell customers with an enhanced ability to recognize non-traditional PPO cost containment — both through deeper contracted reductions and broader penetration.
“We’re excited about the opportunity to work with Mitchell and its customers as we share Mitchell’s commitment to providing customers with the best level service and specialty cost-containment solutions in the industry,” said Ken Hannigan, Chief Executive Officer of Adva-Net. “Adva-Net’s partnership with Mitchell enables a wholly integrated solution that benefits both payers and providers with increased efficiency, greater savings and cutting edge clinical management tools for both pain management and post-acute care services.”
