Filling a Vital Need for Health Plans

CODY® was founded in 2006 by industry veterans with first-hand experience of the high costs and challenges associated with regulated materials production, and how poorly managed processes can lead to missed deadlines, errors, compliance issues, and much chaos.

CODY® sought a better way to help highly regulated payer organizations increase efficiencies, enhance operations, maximize profitability and better serve their members. Our deep understanding of the challenges health plans face led us to develop our unique set of proven products and services designed specifically for the bumpy terrain of the healthcare industry.

As former health plan employees, we understand the heavy lifts health plans are tasked with surrounding regulated materials and required mailings -- developing workflow processes, acquiring and managing content of internal subject matter experts (SMEs), creating materials, printing, kitting and mailing pre and post enrollment kits, ID Cards, and ANOCs. With the reductions in state and federal reimbursements, and the potential for sanctions and civil money penalties for non-compliance, health plans are looking for ways to reduce costs while ensuring compliance.

Our Services

Through our consulting service lines, we partner with health plans to:

  • Operate more efficiently and effectively
  • Cut excessive expenses
  • Avoid unnecessary risks

Our Software

Our proprietary CodySoft® suite of software programs revolutionizes the way health plans operate by simplifying:

  • Complex project management
  • Complicated member and provider marketing collateral
  • Regulatory compliance for the ANOCs, EOCs and beyond
  • Investigation issues for compliance departments
  • Risk management throughout the organization
