TPA Network, Inc.

Our experience dates back to the beginning of the health insurance industry, more than 50 years ago. Principals of our firm have helped to shape and develop some of the earliest forms of group health insurance in the '60s. We were there in the '70s and '80s when the TPA industry took hold and expanded rapidly. When federal legislation threatened to make the industry more cumbersome, we represented hundreds of TPAs (and millions of plan participants) at hearings before the U.S. Congress. We have counseled governments and think tanks, published numerous articles, and spoken extensively on topics of interest and concern to TPAs, health insurers and managed care organizations. TPA Network's principals and network of experts include professionals with a wide variety of backgrounds and decades of hands-on experience in the design, operation, management and marketing of large-scale administrative operations both in the U.S. and offshore, including extensive experience working with both small and large-scale health insurers, TPAs, HMOs and other healthplan administration entities. Our principals and associates have started and operated TPAs, managed care organizations, and business process outsourcing firms, both in the U.S. and abroad. Over the years our clients have included a diverse group of health insurers, HMOs, and Fortune 500’s with names such as Prudential, Fidelity Insurance Group, Xerox, New York Life, UNYSIS, the American Healthcare Association, General de Seguros, and Computer Sciences Corporation. We have advised and represented several allied service vendors to the industry and have performed numerous research, consulting, valuation and merger and acquisition assignments. And because we have business and/or personal relationships with the principals and executive management of more than 200 TPAs, PPOs, HMOs, and health insurers we are often engaged to facilitate introductions and negotiate deals.
