Operational Strength Is the New Competitive Edge

The gap between a good health system and a great one is no longer just clinical; it's operational. Meridian helps systems build the intelligence and activation infrastructure to keep patients moving through your own network, capture the value of the contracts you’ve signed, and compound those gains year over year.

What Meridian Does for Health System Leaders

• Systematically manage your largest controllable financial lever. The referral network drives more financial impact than almost any other operational decision a health system makes. Most systems know it. Few have the infrastructure to act on it. Meridian is that infrastructure.

• Proof of concept at scale. $2.6B in documented opportunity across 60+ health system partners. An NPS of 55.3 — 60% above industry average. The track record exists, and it's verifiable.

• Mission and margin, aligned. The pressure to improve margin without compromising care quality is a false tradeoff, if you have the right intelligence. Meridian ensures that financially optimal referrals are also clinically sound ones, so performance on one dimension doesn't come at the expense of the other.

• A capability that compounds. Meridian isn't a one-time capture event. Health systems that operate with this discipline build a BD infrastructure that gets smarter with every cycle, improving network performance, payer mix, and contract outcomes on a continuous basis.

• A partner whose confidence is in the contract. Outcomes-based fee structure. Single fee tied to realized improvement in value per patient per service line. The risk structure reflects what we believe about the results, and puts our economics where our conviction is.

The margin you're searching for is already in your network. We help you find and keep it.

Meridian is financial infrastructure for your referral network, purpose-built to quantify what leakage is costing you, model the path to recovery, and tie every dollar of investment to a measurable return. Our fee structure is 100% outcomes-based. We earn when you improve.

What Meridian Does for Finance Leaders

• A quantified opportunity, not an estimate. $65–$100M in annual opportunity with a clear category breakdown: $40–$55M in leakage recovery, $15–$25M in APM performance improvement, $10–$20M in site-of-service optimization. The business case is verifiable before you commit.

• A physician-level model that builds directly into your P&L. At $1.6M in revenue impact per leaking physician per year, Meridian gives you the granularity to size the opportunity by service line, prioritize recovery, and make the case to your board with numbers that hold up to scrutiny.

• Risk shared, not transferred. A single outcomes-based fee tied to realized improvement in value per patient per service line. Not a software subscription. Not a fixed cost added before value is delivered. We don't get paid until you do.

• A financial case for your highest-margin service lines. Margin compression rarely comes from costs alone, it comes from underutilized capacity in the lines where you make the most. Meridian identifies where volume is leaking from high-margin service lines and builds the recovery path into your financial model.

Your strategic plan is only as strong as the network infrastructure that executes it.

Meridian gives your strategy function something it has never had: the intelligence and activation infrastructure to deliver results you can prove to the CFO. Whether your focus is network development, service line growth or value-based expansion, Meridian connects strategic vision to clinical workflow, turning a growth plan into a growth result.

What Meridian Does for Strategy Leaders

• Move your strategy function from identifying the problem to owning the outcome. Meridian gives you the plan, the targets, and the measurement infrastructure to prove what your team actually moved.

• An embedded analytics partner, supporting your executive communications, board materials, and cross-functional analysis. Not a dashboard you manage. A team that shares accountability for results.

• The only platform that models fee-for-service and value-based contracts simultaneously, giving your team the visibility to influence contracting, revenue cycle, and clinical leadership decisions. That's your credibility with the CFO.

• We’ll help you build the CFO business case, with quantified opportunity ranges, outcomes-based fee structure, and validation from 60+ health system partners.

Value-based contracts only pay off when the network performs. Meridian makes that happen.

Meridian is the first platform to optimize fee-for-service and value-based contracts simultaneously. That means your referral strategy no longer has to choose — between volume growth and APM performance, between what's right for today's patient and what's right for next quarter's quality targets. Every recommendation your physicians receive is modeled against the actual payment model in play, in real time.

What Meridian Does for Value-Based Care

• Simultaneous optimization across 70+ payment models: every recommendation is evaluated across your full portfolio including FFS, Medicare Advantage, MSSP, TEAM, and commercial agreements in a single integrated view.

• Quality-validated Recommendations: every recommendation is validated using Patient Care Episode analysis, ensuring that financially optimal referrals are directed to providers who meet quality thresholds. You will not accidentally direct volume to specialists who drive up episode costs or trigger quality penalties.

• Meridian TEAM Success module: full CMS TEAM program management including episode tracking, quality threshold monitoring, target price forecasting, and reconciliation preparation.

• Meridian MSSP Success module: core mechanisms include risk stratification, attribution management, utilization management, quality performance, HCC coding, and more. AI-powered root cause analysis with decomposed benchmark targets.

Revenue integrity starts with the referral decision. Most revenue cycle tools arrive too late to matter.

Meridian gives your revenue cycle team the contract-aware intelligence to see exactly how referral patterns are affecting realized rates across your full payer portfolio — and which changes would drive the most financial impact.

What Meridian Does for Revenue Cycle

• 5.6 trillion price transparency rates: actual payer-specific rates, not blended averages. Meridian shows you what every referral is worth under each contract at your actual negotiated rate.

• Site-of-service misalignment: Capture $10–$20M in recoverable opportunity per health system from optimizing where services are delivered relative to your payer contract structures.

• Contract negotiation intelligence: see how your referral patterns compare to market benchmarks and what competitors are accepting, giving you leverage in your next negotiation cycle.

• Meridian’s delivery model includes dedicated senior consultants for contract analysis, managed care strategy, and payer-specific reporting.

• Your existing contract data becomes more powerful, not replaced. Meridian adds the referral intelligence layer on top of your existing visibility, connecting contract economics to behavioral patterns in the field.

Stop managing relationships without intelligence. Know exactly which visit matters most before you make it.

Practice liaisons and network relations teams are on the front lines of referral management, but most are operating without the intelligence to prioritize their time, prove their impact, or know which conversations are actually moving the needle. Meridian changes that.

What Meridian Does for Practice Liaison Teams

• Practice-specific AI playbooks: not a sorted list, but a complete guide for each physician conversation, who to target, what to say, what has been tried before, what the financial case is from their perspective, and what quality data supports the conversation.

• Addressability intelligence means every target on your list is actually winnable: no more wasted calls to practices where capacity is full, a competitor is firmly entrenched, or quality thresholds make a referral inadvisable.

• Quality data for clinical credibility: Patient Care Episode analysis gives you evidence about specialist quality that physicians and their practice managers respect. You are not just making a financial ask, you are having a clinical conversation.

• Real-time tracking from recommendation to captured referral: you get visibility into what you moved, not just what you tried. Your results become visible and verifiable to your leadership.

• Proven change management framework: a structured approach to physician behavior change, supported by liaison coaching from Clarify’s BD Activation team. You are not in the field alone.
