Tampa, Florida, United States Avalon Administrative Services, LLC dba Avalon Healthcare Solutions Full time

About Avalon Healthcare Solutions:

Avalon Healthcare Solutions, based in Tampa, Florida, is a pioneering Lab Insights organization that integrates advanced Lab Benefit Management solutions, laboratory science expertise, digitized lab values, and proprietary analytics. Our mission is to assist healthcare insurers in proactively guiding appropriate care, minimizing costs, and enhancing clinical outcomes.

We collaborate with health plans nationwide, covering over 36 million lives and achieving significant outpatient lab benefit savings ranging from 7-12%.

Avalon is at the forefront of a transformative era in value-driven care through our Lab Insights Platform, which captures, digitizes, and analyzes lab results in real-time, providing actionable insights for early disease detection, ensuring adherence to treatment protocols, and reducing overall costs.

Research indicates that 30% of clinical laboratory testing is either unnecessary or excessive. Inappropriate testing or missing critical screenings can lead to complications and increased expenses from unwarranted care, or conversely, inadequate care when needed, heightening health risks and costs.

Avalon is dedicated to ensuring the right tests are administered at the right time and in the appropriate setting, ultimately aiming to enhance patient treatment effectiveness, improve clinical outcomes, and optimize cost and affordability.

  • Manage multiple forms and electronic documents effectively.
  • Track all policy changes using spreadsheets and other tracking tools.
  • Collaborate with other departments to ensure cohesive communication regarding policy updates.
