GWI-MBI (information medical & business intelligence) is an outsourcing solution that leverages integrated utilization & disease management systems and the business intelligence expertise of Government Works' health care utilization and quality of care division, which is well known for its extensive and in-depth experience, knowledge, and expertise in both health plan and provider sides of the industry - this translates to being able to consistently provide financial and quality of care value to every stakeholder in a health plan.

Government Works' expertise is exceeded only by a passionate commitment towards reducing healthcare costs while enhancing quality of care, which clients have stated what makes Government Works a true partner as opposed to just a vendor.

GWI-MBI systematically and synergistically leverages GWI-UM (a comprehensive online utilization, reporting and management analysis system) and GWI-DM (an online disease based management system) to help health plans analyze the professional and financial components of their plans and the corresponding quality of care being provided. With the aid of appropriate and timely intelligence, iMBI experts assist health plans to structure proactive strategies that decrease medical expenses by as much as 25 % while improving the quality of care provided.

GWI-MBI's effectiveness is predicated on the fact that higher quality of care costs less and that a progressive cycle of better quality of care results in improved utilization. Government works has consistently shown that quality of care is an excellent proxy for cost - an inverse relationship exists between optimum health care expense and quality of care regardless of plan size and location.

Using precise utilization and quality of care analyses, GWI-MBI provides realistic answers to today's challenge on how to positively impact every stakeholder in healthcare - the member, provider, employer, and the health plan.

Government Works analyses have shown that although it is easy to assess real health care costs, cost management is possible only by reducing the magnitude of the cost variation (about 60%) between physicians who are above and below the average resource utilization.

Government Works observations have also consistently revealed that 65-70 % of primary care physicians are both cost effective and offer high quality care. Primary care physicians in this tier usually have less than 30% of all the catastrophic cases.
