Tēla Sourcing Signs a 3-Year Term Contract with a Large TPA in Florida, USA

BALTIMORE and Pune — Tēla Sourcing announced today that it has signed a definitive long term contract (3 years) with a leading TPA in Florida. The client evaluated several vendors and found Tela to be the most efficient and cost-effective solution provider. The client was particularly impressed with Tela’s delivery capabilities and its onshore account management that greatly simplified the outsourced process and reduced the migration risk to near zero. The outsourced services include front end processing, adjudication, COB processing and enrollment. The use of Tela’s offshore resources was a strategic decision by the TPA to bring its costs under control, improve its quality and turn-around time and make it more competitive in the marketplace.

Tēla delivers a combination of price-based claims processing functions and comprehensive value-added business process outsourcing (BPO) services tailored to a customer’s unique needs. Unlike most other offshore BPO vendors, Tēla offers end-to-end offshore BPO services through its operations center in Pune, India combined with significant onshore delivery capabilities in Washington State, along with a U.S.-based account management team.
