| Cofinity builds on the strengths of several organizations for the benefit of insurance companies, third-party administrators and health plan managers. An Aetna company, Cofinity combines Aetna Health Plan Services with HMS Healthcare, Inc. Aetna Health Plan Services was created in 2006 with a focus on redeveloping and deploying existing Aetna capabilities for distribution as stand-alone products and services. Acquired by Aetna in 2005, HMS was formed one year earlier by purchasing and unifying the medical management organization, HMS Healthcare, with several well known regional PPOs including the Flora Health Network, Mountain Medical Affiliates, PPOM, and Sloans Lake Preferred Health Networks. All offer extensive network management experience, highly efficient and automated claims repricing and reporting services, and well-established provider relationships. Today, these organizations have been integrated to form a new business with a unique market focus of selling specific health care solutions. The best of both worlds, Cofinity capitalizes on the shared expertise and synergies that this consolidation provides. Cofinity now offers market leading Aetna capabilities, supported by independent sales, operations and customer service capabilities. |
