Greetings!

Welcome to your Alliance e-Resource. This quarterly e-mail keeps you up-to-date on Alliance products and services to help you serve your clients.
The New QualityCounts® Inpatient Hospital Report Released to Members
The Alliance's QualityCounts Inpatient Hospital was recently released to Alliance members. This new report is now available through our Find a Doctor directory and on the QualityCounts section of our website. The report includes cost and quality on inpatient admissions in 13 areas of care.

Access to the Report
QualityCounts includes sensitive information about the health care providers we contract with. For this reason, the reports are available only to Alliance members and their employees who enroll in their medical benefit plan(s) which access The Alliance.

If you are an agent or consultant working with an Alliance member you do not automatically receive report access, but you may receive it if you have reason to use the report with a member. Members may not share this report with you without having you sign an Access Request Form and Nondisclosure Agreement. Sharing the report without having you sign this form would be a violation of our provider agreements. If you need report access, please let us know as you will need to sign this form.

If you have any questions, please contact Bobbi Jones, product management specialist, or 800.223.4139 x 6638.
