Why Many TPA’s Outsource Subrogation

Tuesday, April 28, 2009

An informal survey of our clients revealed the following “Top 5” reasons for aligning with a dedicated subrogation representative:

  1. TPA’s felt mismatched with plaintiff attorneys.
  2. Money!  A dedicated subro firm should recover more money.
  3. Subrogation is seen as too time consuming and/or TPA was not being compensated for it.
  4. To help with case identification. 
  5. Individual plans are more aware of the savings opportunity and receptive to having a specialist involved.
