TRANSWORLD SYSTEMS CELEBRATING 10 YEARS AS A MEDICAL GROUP
MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATION ADMINISERVE PARTNER
After 10 Years as an MGMA AdminiServe® Partner, Transworld Systems Continues to
Provide Quality Service and High Recovery Rates
October 8, 2008 – Santa Rosa, CA – Transworld Systems, the industry leader in profit
recovery, is celebrating 10 Years as a Medical Group Management Association (MGMA)
AdminiServe Partner this year. MGMA is the premier membership association for professional
administrators and leaders of medical group practices and AdminiServe is the branded name for
the Association’s preferred supplier network.
Through the MGMA AdminiServe® partnership, Transworld Systems has recovered more than
$290 million for MGMA members while providing a very significant return on investment.
“This milestone is a testament to the success of the partnership, which ultimately benefits
MGMA members. We have been working with the MGMA for over 10 years now, and we
couldn’t be happier with the results. This partnership is clearly a win-win.,” said Ken Eissing,
Senior Vice President and General Manager for Transworld Systems.
“The numbers speak for themselves – recovery of over $290 million with a 50 percent recovery
rate and an ROI of almost 3,400 percent with a collection cost of 2.9 percent, “said Steve
Hellebush, MGMA’s Vice President of Business Development. “Transworld and the MGMA
AdminiServe program continue to provide significant value to MGMA members and their
organizations. All of our AdminiServe partners are focused on helping our members succeed,
while delivering first-rate service. We proudly celebrate 10 years with Transworld Systems.”
Transworld Systems has been an MGMA AdminiServe Partner since 1998. The Company’s
GreenFlagSM Profit Recovery service handles accounts receivable from early past due accounts
through hard-to-collect delinquent accounts. MGMA selected Transworld Systems as their
preferred profit recovery supplier due to their low flat-fee pricing, national presence, industry
leading recovery rates and their diplomatic, third-party approach.
"Since July 2001, Transworld Systems has collected over $2,442,000 for our office in delinquent
insurance claims with their insurance recovery program. The collection cost was a mere 1.2%.
We also use Transworld Systems on our private pay accounts at 2% collection cost." – Ruby
Dust – Administrator Surgery, Inc in Tulsa, Oklahoma
