Strout

Strout helps health plans establish accurate Coordination of Benefits before claims are paid. Founded in 1992, the company combines more than 30 years of Medicare, commercial, and employer-sponsored coverage expertise with technology and advanced data analytics. Its approach identifies member life-event changes and coverage shifts early, allowing health plans to resolve coordination issues before claims processing rather than relying on costly post-payment recovery workflows.

Strout reports that preventive COB accuracy can protect 100% of identified opportunities, compared with 20–30% capture under traditional recovery models, and that health plans implementing proactive COB can achieve three to five times higher net savings at lower administrative cost. The company serves national and regional health plans, government programs, third-party administrators, payment-integrity partners, front-end revenue-cycle organizations, and self-insured employers.
