“Once Critique, through MBA, was engaged in our medical management efforts, we found that there was a substantial difference in the year-end results due to lower total claims. This difference was result of fewer hospitalizations & shorter stays as well as improved medical risk in on-going illnesses. These factors created very comfortable renewals for our clients.”
—William R. Greer, CIC, President, Greer & Assoc.
