The Settlement Snapshot

What it is

A short, fixed-scope first engagement. I reconstruct your PY2024 settlement from public CMS data, reconcile it to your actual CMS check, and size what is recoverable, so you know whether there is real money worth pursuing before you commit to the full analysis. Nothing is required from your side.

What you get

1. A reconciled settlement reconstruction. Your PY2024 benchmark, spend, savings rate, and settlement, rebuilt from public data and reconciled to within 1% of your actual CMS check.
2. Opportunity sizing. The total estimated recoverable settlement, which lever dominates, documentation or utilization, and the single population segment or cost category where it concentrates.
3. A clear verdict. Whether there is material money worth a full analysis, with the number attached. Not a maybe.

What it is not

The Snapshot sizes the prize. It is not the full teardown. The segment-by-segment decomposition, the specific documentation gaps, what each lever is worth net of the effort to capture it, and the capture roadmap are the full Settlement Analysis. The Snapshot tells you whether that work is worth doing, and points to where it pays off.

The guarantee

How it ladders

If you move to the full Settlement Analysis within 30 days, the $2,500 is credited in full. The Snapshot becomes the first step of the larger engagement, not a separate cost. You are buying a low-risk look at whether the deeper work is worth it, and if it is, you have lost nothing by starting here.

Method and independence

Everything is built from CMS public use files. No BAA, no claims feed, no IT project. VBC Contract Performance Intelligence holds no financial relationship with any vendor, payer, or coding company. It is not a coding vendor and not a care-gap product. The figures are independent estimates for your own decision-making.
