There is one thing that sets us apart: our providers. Our providers include the best names from the physician, hospital, and other areas of the medical community. The front-line caregivers of Pinnacle focus on quality of patient care, not "Wall Street" returns. Your local provider makes the clinical decisions, not a "bureaucrat" from another state.

Key Advantages
Pinnacle provides unique elements to our network offering that distinguish us from the competition:

1. "Best pricing" of our providers
   As part of their commitment to Pinnacle, our providers provide to you their favorable financial terms. While you may have our doctors and hospitals in your current network, we have them at more favorable reimbursements, and pass the savings directly to you.



2. Multi-Year Contracting
   We believe that quality of care is defined over the long term. Therefore, we contract to lock in the "best pricing" concept of our providers for multiple years from the date of purchase. This provides you with enhanced budget stability, and emphasizes patient care.



3. Shared Savings
   Our Shared Savings Plan provides medical management for you on a "pay for performance" basis. You pay no separate medical management fees! Savings derived over benchmark costs are split between you and Pinnacle each year. If there are no savings, you pay nothing for this service.
