Leading Health Care Innovator Poised to Deliver New Health Coverage Options To The Hudson Valley Region
Middletown, NY (PRWEB) June 02, 2015 -- The health care leaders who established Crystal Run Healthcare as a pioneering provider of value-based care will now offer health coverage for those who work or live in Orange and Sullivan Counties. The newly launched Crystal Run Health Plans has received New York State approval for its commercial Small Group Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) and Exclusive Provider Organization (EPO) health plans.
Crystal Run Healthcare’s Managing Partner and CEO, Hal Teitelbaum, MD, JD, MBA, explained: “The role we play as physicians has evolved. Our “product” is not primarily health care services—surgery, medication, visits and diagnostic tests—but rather, health outcomes, assuring that our patients and communities enjoy a better quality and quantity of life.” Dr. Teitelbaum continued: “Establishing Crystal Run Health Plans provides us the platform we need to innovate and partner with patients, employers and other providers to develop a sustainable, high-value health care system.”
Glenn Polansky, Executive Director of Crystal Run Health Plans, added: “By forming our own health plans we have the opportunity to establish a new standard for health care service and delivery. Combining a core network largely comprised of Crystal Run Physicians and a large national network with an unparalleled service promise, our health plan is uniquely positioned to offer the marketplace what it is most desires—stable premiums and an exceptional customer experience.”
The Crystal Run Health Plans networks will include Crystal Run Healthcare providers and additional quality providers, health care facilities and hospitals. Many Crystal Run plans include pharmacy benefits, as well as vision and dental coverage for dependent children.
Dr. Teitelbaum noted, “We designed these plans to give Hudson Valley residents new options for innovative, quality coverage and health care services at a lower premium and out of pocket cost. Crystal Run plans are—and will remain— competitive or lower cost than comparable plans offered by others while reinvesting premiums within our region.”
Dr. Teitelbaum added: “Crystal Run Healthcare will accept Crystal Run Health Plans in addition to the health plans offered by the many other carriers with whom we already contract.”
Crystal Run Health Plans anticipates announcing approval of its commercial Large Group Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) and Exclusive Provider Organization (EPO) plans shortly and looks forward to the approval of its Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) plans in the coming months.
