NYGA Launches Direct Contracting Program for Self-Insured Employers

New York Gastroenterology Associates (NYGA), the leading independent gastroenterology practice in New York City, has launched a direct contracting program to help self-insured employers reduce GI-related healthcare costs and improve access to specialty care.

 

GI procedures such as colonoscopy and endoscopy represent a meaningful portion of employer medical spend and are often significantly more expensive when performed within health systems. As an independent practice, NYGA provides the same high-quality GI care at lower prices.

 

By contracting directly with NYGA and bypassing traditional insurance network pricing, employers can access these lower costs along with flat-fee bundled rates for procedures, offering greater pricing transparency and predictability.

 

The program is easy to implement. Employers simply refer eligible patients to NYGA, and our team manages all outreach and scheduling. In addition to receiving high-quality care and timely appointments, employees often benefit from reduced or no out-of-pocket costs, depending on how each employer chooses to structure the program.
