Marketing in a Changing Market

If you’ve found yourself struggling to write new business lately, take heart. The healthcare landscape continues to shift, making it harder and harder for TPAs to keep a strong foothold. Staying on top of the issues can help, but to get meaningful sales traction, you may have to change the way you do things.

The Third Party Administrator Alliance—known as the TPAA—recently retained the services of Orlando-based ARMS, Inc. to create new cost saving alliances for its member TPAs.
