Organ transplants can be lifesaving treatments
Transplants are costly and complex. Without careful contract negotiation, along with provider oversight, financial and clinical outcomes can vary dramatically.
That’s why thousands of clients partner with Optum to reduce medical expenses and to gain access to quality transplant providers through our unique Transplant Resource Services (TRS) and Managed Transplant Program (MTP).
Costs vary depending on the type of transplant and where, geographically, the transplant is being performed, leading to unpredictable costs.
Transplant Resource Services
Our transplant Centers of Excellence (COE) network is at the heart of how we help Commercial, Medicare Advantage and managed Medicaid payers. TRS provides clients access to this specialized network, which delivers deep savings through better contracted rates. Payers have access to averages of 58% Commercial, 66% Medicare and 62% Medicaid savings rates.
