Our Members
Industry Leading resources can better serve health plan challenges through collaboration.
While the “preferred vendor” model has a place in many industry organizations, health plans often find that many targeted resources do not have the ability to fully understand or meet many of the complex challenges being faced today. MCRA is not a sales organization. It is a safe place for health plans to come for advice and guidance from leading resources that are focusing and collaborating on managed care industry challenges.
MCRA carefully vets members. Our focus is to provide health plans with a singular, best in class resource to support all areas of a managed care organizations challenges. With no competition, members are free to collaborate openly to develop meaningful solutions. MCRA members manage services for over 200 health plans in Medicare, Medicaid, Commercial and Self Insurance.
