The situation
Hudson had grown from a single clinic to nine sites across western Wisconsin without renegotiating most commercial agreements in five years. Leadership suspected they were leaving real money on the table, particularly with their two largest commercial payers, but didn’t have the data to make a defensible ask. An earlier consulting engagement produced a benchmark report that sat on a shelf. Nothing changed at the table.
What Aroris did
Aroris ingested all 14 active commercial agreements and ran them against our payer-by-payer, code-by-code dataset within the first three weeks. We surfaced the highest-evidence opportunities and built rate cases the team could defend without a deep contracting background.
- Ingested 14 active commercial contracts into Aroris360 in week 1.
- Benchmarked 1,200+ CPTs against the Aroris dataset and ranked the top 30 opportunities by dollars at stake.
- Opened rate cases on the three highest-evidence commercial payers. Two settled before the second meeting.
- Activated Live Claims Monitoring immediately after each signed agreement to catch silent under-payment in the first 90 days.
The outcome
Across the three lead cases, Hudson signed an average +14.8% weighted increase. Live Claims Monitoring has flagged $190K in mis-paid claims in the first year alone, money that historically would have rolled off a 30-day re-bill window unnoticed. Leadership has full visibility into payer performance for the first time.
“Their compensation model alone tells you they’re on your side. Aroris does the work no one else has the data to do.”Matt Brandt
