October 5, 2009- Phoenix, AZ- HNA Provides a Way for Easier Negotiation of Contracts Phoenix, Arizona—Healthcare Networks of America saw the following dilemma for today’s
physicians struggling to make a profit: The cost of operating a medical practice has increased significantly through the years, and physician reimbursements are declining steadily. Most
physicians are overworking simply to break even, and in many cases, are making less than what they did in previous years. This is where Healthcare Networks of America intervened to create a solution. HNA formed to help physicians and their practice administrators negotiate high-paying fee-for-service contracts to increase the revenue for their practices. An example of what HNA does can be seen in its new contract with National Benefit Builders Incorporation. NBBI is a program especially designed to build the cash-paying portion of podiatric practices.
