    The Challenge with Manual Delegation Oversight

    Resources management

    To ensure CMS regulatory compliance requirements are enforced, plan sponsors must monitor the activities of their delegated entities continuously to sustain regulatory compliance, whether they outsource:

    With the ever-changing Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) regulatory requirements, health plans are turning to enterprise software to achieve the following business objectives:
