I agree that one of most relevant financial issues of contemporary healthcare and medical reimbursement today, are Incurred But Not Reported (IBNR) claims. IBNR claims are an indirect result of prospective payments systems, the insurance industry and commercial risk contracts, and to some extent fee-for-service medicine.

As such, IBNR claims represent a risk and an opportunity for managed care companies, healthcare organizations, clinics, and medical providers alike.

Thanks again, for bringing it to our attention.
