According to AdvancedMD survey findings, more than 40% of healthcare providers plan to negotiate payor reimbursement rates this year
South Jordan, Utah, June 24, 2025 – AdvancedMD, a provider of cloud-based healthcare software for independent medical practices, today announced the addition of NGA Healthcare to its partner integration marketplace. As a health insurance contracting and consulting services firm, NGA Healthcare’s team of experts works directly with healthcare providers to optimize payor contracts and to streamline the credentialing process.
A recent survey conducted by AdvancedMD revealed that 44% of healthcare providers plan to renegotiate payor reimbursement rates this year to help improve the financial stability of their practice. “Getting even a 2% to 3% increase from a payor that is heavily represented in your practice might result in $500,000 in additional revenue during the year,” according to Tracy Watrous, Vice President of Member Services at Medical Group Management Association (MGMA).
“The ambulatory care space is up against numerous challenges. Reduced Medicare rates, delayed patient payments and increased operational costs make it extremely difficult for healthcare providers to meet their financial goals,” said Amanda Sharp, CEO, AdvancedMD. “Renegotiating your reimbursement rates—or entering into a new payor contract is a straightforward way to immediately improve your bottom line with minimal effort. It’s the reason AdvancedMD prioritizes our analytics and reporting solutions. We provide the data necessary to renegotiate payor rates, while NGA Healthcare does the negotiating for you.”
NGA Healthcare’s contract negotiation and credentialing services have helped medical providers gain a 10% to 20% increase in reimbursement rates and achieve as much as a 15% to 75% upturn in new contract negotiations with payor organizations. NGA Healthcare’s experts deliver results at an accelerated pace so that independent practices see faster results with minimal disruptions to operational workflows.
“We are thrilled to be part of the AdvancedMD integration marketplace. Combining AdvancedMD analytics with our expert negotiation capabilities allows private practices to fast-track their payor negotiation strategies and win improved payor contracts and significantly higher reimbursement rates,” said Nathaniel Arana, Founder and CEO, NGA Healthcare.
