MET Healthcare Solutions, a URAC accredited IRO, is currently looking for new providers of your specialty in the Houston  area to join our Network of physicians to conduct medical chart reviews and second opinion evaluations. 

Benefits include:

•          Flexible Hours- performed when and where you choose

•          Improved cash flow with consistent increased referrals

•          No medical prescriptions or follow ups required

•          Earn up to $8,000 working part time

 

The reviews do not require you to treat the patient but only evaluate their current condition and the medical necessity of the requested treatment/service by utilizing your knowledge, experience and evidence based guidelines.  

 

We provide you with all available documents for the case and a preliminary report which includes a summary of the case.  What we need from you is your professional opinion as to whether the requested treatment/services are medically necessary based on the guidelines and any other applicable references to support your opinion.

Our current Pain Medicine physicians  can complete a review in approximately 20 minutes on average.

 Each standard review, which is due within 3 days, is reimbursed at a rate of $150 and the expedited reviews, due in 24 hours, is $250. 

Neither of these reviews require any peer to peer phone calls or additional time requirements. 

In addition to these, we also have expert medical opinion reviews which has the same requirements but includes a little more detail in the decision and is reimbursed at a higher rate of $300 for standard cases and $400 for expedited. 

 

We also have second opinion evaluations where you actually examine the claimant and provide your opinion on the individual’s medical condition or work-related injury based on your exam and documents provided.  On average the exam takes 20 minutes to complete and does not require any follow ups, medications, or on call duties. 

 

Currently, our physicians that perform both the reviews and evaluations are making an average of $8,000 per month working around their schedules.  You have the ability to accept as many or as few cases as you have time for.
