TriZetto Introduces Institute for Integrated Healthcare Risk Management

Naperville, Illinois - October, 2010 - The TriZetto Group, Inc. today announced the formation of a new, exclusive partnership of leading independent health benefits administration firms nationwide. This organization is built upon the believe that leading benefits administration firms that integrate proven expertise in the design and administration of self-funded health benefit plans with comprehensive tools for cost avoidance are strategically positioned to manage healthcare risk and create the potential for greater employer group plan savings.

Founded and sponsored by The TriZetto Group, Inc. with co-sponsorship from Benefit Informatics, the mission of the Institute is to provide member administrators with integrated resources that enable them to better manage risk and coordinate care for client employers and their covered employees. Communication, education and adherence to performance standards are among the Institute’s established objectives.

"We are proud that the Institute will help recognize the ability of top risk management and health benefits administration firms to better manage the cost and quality of health benefits. By capitalizing on the unique, integrated business solutions made possible by unique Premier Partnerships, forward-thinking benefits administration firms will continue to expand from a singular focus of paying claims to a broader strategy of managing healthcare risk," said Joe Manheim, Senior Vice President of benefits administration for TriZetto. "By working closely with IHRM members and our TriZetto Premier Partners, we will continue to more effectively impact the cost and quality of care for self-funded employer groups."
