A WISHIN Participant Quantifies the Return On Investment

Quantifying the monetary return on investment WISHIN provides can be tricky. For one WISHIN customer, the numbers are clear. She estimates the ROI is 4X the amount invested in WISHIN.

"Ask WISHIN Anything" Was a Success Thanks to You!

On August 12, dozens of WISHIN participants gathered for the latest AWA. WISHIN staff provided updates on several projects and answered questions from attendees. We thank you for your interest in WISHIN and we look forward to another "Ask WISHIN Anything" session in the future.

Contract with WISHIN to Try to Reclaim the 2025 1.5% FFS Withhold

 ELIGIBLE HOSPITALS: You can still reach out to join the WISHIN network and try to claw back 2025 1.5% fee-for-service (FFS) inpatient and outpatient claims withhold. If you contracted with WISHIN by July 1, you have secured your ability to reclaim the 2025 withhold. If you reach out post-July 1, WISHIN will work with you to try to claw back the withhold.
