Will the insurance carrier or third party administrator know who I-AHC is?

No, they probably will not. Remember, we contract with the PPO or MCO network. We rarely contract directly with the claims payor. The PPO or MCO has the contract with the claims payor. For example, the claims payor normally does not know that First Health or American PPO uses I-AHC chiropractors. There are several hundred companies paying claims for each PPO throughout the country. By contracting with I-AHC, your name is placed in the directories of all the contracted PPO plan participants.
