The CNC Advantage
With years of successful network management experience, CNC is uniquely poised to assist payors in reducing the costs of chiropractic services while maintaining quality.
Our network includes more than 1300 chiropractic physicians in North and South Carolina.

However, it is our comprehensive quality and cost containment programs that set us apart and allow our organization to maximize efficiency and provide tremendous value to our contracted payors.
Key advantages to an intermediary arrangement with our organization:
EXPERIENCE
CNC’s proven expertise in implementing and managing intermediary arrangements coupled with our comprehensive quality and cost-containment programs, assures the highest quality of chiropractic care for your members, while reducing the costs of care to our contracted payors.
COST
Our competitive pricing initiative allows us to offer the best in pricing and flexible fee structures. We offer a highly competitive bid, together with supportive quality programs to provide you with the best value in chiropractic services. There are no fees to our managed care partners for any of the services that we provide.
QUALITY
Our comprehensive 7-part Continuous Quality Improvement program was designed both to promote quality and reduce costs. Quality begins with our credentialing program that exceeds both NCQA and URAC standards, assuring that only the finest physicians are allowed to represent our contracted payors. At the heart of our CQI program is progressive utilization management that identifies costly outliers and targets those physicians for reeducation and/or removal from the network if utilization patterns are not improved. Our utilization management includes a pay-for-performance program that reduces churning while rewarding quality, efficiency and cost containment. Our documentation, coding and compliance program provides ongoing provider education and improves compliance to your corporate medical policies as well as reducing fraud and abuse. The impact of our extensive CQI program is a significant reduction in the costs of chiropractic care to our payors without sacrificing quality.
ACCESS
Your members will have immediate access to our physician network that is already in place, providing excellent geographic coverage. CNC is an open panel network, and remains poised to promptly credential any qualified provider that may be an important addition to your employer groups.
SERVICES
Our commitment to electronic solutions are supported by significant investments in technology that enable us to process more than 3 million clean claims to our payors each year, with a single push of a button. All claims are subjected to payor-specific edits to assure that only clean claims are transmitted to you. Claims are transmitted to you via a HIPAA 837 claim file, and all under a single EIN, eliminating the need for individual provider checks. CNC does all the rest; we receive your 835 remittance file and distribute payments on your behalf to our network physicians. Our CNC Provider Representatives field more than 6000 phone calls per month that would otherwise be directed to our contracted payors, providing additional administrative costs reductions.
RESULTS
With proven results in successful network management, at contract renewal, each of our managed care partners has chosen to continue to contract with CNC, relying upon our expertise to deliver quality chiropractic care to their members in the most cost-effective manner.
CNC is poised to provide immediate access to quality chiropractic care for your members at significant cost reductions. With competitive pricing, electronic solutions and comprehensive programs that reduce costs and promote quality, CNC has raised the bar for innovation and excellence in successful network management.
