"We switched from our previous vendor to the Johns Hopkins ACG risk adjuster through NRHI and the cost was a fraction of what we were paying. The savings from switching covered significantly more than our annual NRHI member dues, while also providing a high quality product."
~ Keith Hepp, Former CFO at The Health Collaborative
