Physical Therapy Management Company Celebrates 15 Years, Expands

January 22, 2012 By //  by Robert Elliott, J.D. Leave a Comment

2012 is Network Synergy Group (NSG)’s 15th anniversary. Its physical therapy management programs started in 1997 and this year expands to Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, and Mississippi. NSG now offers a Therapy Management Solution to self-insured employers, insurance companies, and Third Party Administrators throughout those states and others – 25 in all.
 
 
According to NSG employees, the company broke the fee-for-service model in which medical providers were rewarded for more, not better, services. “NSG’s idea was simple – realign the financial incentives of the therapy providers to do the right thing, and reward them for providing better care, not more care. This idea would grow into a unique concept known as NSG’s Condition Rate Program,” the company writes.
 
NSG provides management services for physical therapy, occupational therapy, functional capacity evaluations, work hardening and other medical management services. Having a firm manage providers of these services ensures that networks will be more tightly controlled and follow rigorous guidelines for management, cost and monitoring. It also ensures they will provide a solid return on investment for the money employer's invest in their services.
 
 
NSG partners with therapy providers across the country and won the Tampa Bay Chamber of Commerce: Small Business of the Year Finalist in 2010. It also was acquired by GENEX Services, Inc., one of the nation’s leading providers for managed care solutions in 2010.
 
 
NSG now offers a Visit Rate model that gives payers and providers a reimbursement method that improves clinical outcomes and results in claims cost reductions. Greg D’Ambrosio, vice president of client services, said, “We are pleased to provide our services in these states with a keen focus on expanding our network nationally in 2012. This product offering allows us to maintain our core philosophy and values while meeting our clients needs to manage therapy on a national level.”(WCxKit)
