Greetings!

Welcome to Alliance e-Resource. This quarterly e-mail will keep you up-to-date on Alliance products and services to help you serve your clients.
Your Clients Choice for the Best Care
It's a fact. No one health care system can provide the best care in all service areas. Just as they do in the industries they serve, your clients should have the freedom to do business with the suppliers of health care services that provide the best quality and the lowest cost. That's why The Alliance contracts with a vast network of health care providers including:
  • 2,800 provider sites
  • 4,100 medical doctors (MDs)
  • 7,000 professional service providers
  • 49 hospitals
  • 1,800 medical clinic sites
  • 360 chiropractic clinic sites
  • 280 mental health clinic sites
  • 140 home care agencies

With participating providers from nearly every major system in southern Wisconsin and neighboring counties in Iowa and Illinois, our members can count on our cost-effective and extensive network. No matter where our employers are located their employees will have access to high-value providers. Here are just some of the counties where our members live and work:

QualityCounts
The quality and cost of care varies from facility to facility. And high quality care doesn't necessarily cost more. Our QualityCounts™ reports help your clients understand the differences in care. Learn more about QualityCounts.
