Tour preparations

Since issuing our press statement (MBProject Issues Magna Carta for Medical Banking), we’ve been fielding numerous media inquiries about our unique format. We chose this format to get above the noise in DC, to communicate our vision of how to improve health care leveraging the financial system.

Our tour starts next Monday so we’ve been working with sponsors, adjusting our tour home page, prepping our blog and linking twitter to facebook…and more! Its been fun!

We issued a Tour Framework to our members and received comments back…this will help to guide our discussion during the journey.  More to come soon!!!

Type of program:

(please remark on as many as apply to your program(s).

Consumer programs (HSA, etc).

Who is the core constituency for your service? (for example, health care providers, banks, employers, health plans, consumers, etc.

Does your program integrate financial and healthcare systems as part of the value chain? Please describe at a high level.

We don’t want to get granular but as an indicator only, can you categorize rate of penetration by type of program today:

0-50 clients = Low

50-100 clients = Med

>100 clients = High

What is your projected rate of penetration over the next 12 months?

(please use the same categories as above)

How are you managing security and privacy in your systems/ network? (Certifications, other)

At a high level, what is your core innovation that is creating value in the marketplace?

Can you provide one or more case studies that MBP can blog along with references? Only high level data will be used to blog/report case studies.
