Those agreements usually include performance requirements. The LIBERTAS Model takes \u201calignment\u201d and converts it into \u201cactive engagement\u201d by empowering physicians and\/or materials management to drive additional double digit price reductions through vendor interaction. Now, the contract is neither static nor compliance-driven. Instead, it is dynamic with reductions achieved through competitive pricing. Now physicians can use choice to improve overall performance and pricing. <\/p>\r\n       \r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n         \r\n    <div class=\"pt-accordion-box   8\">\r\n      <div class=\"pt-ad-title\">\r\n       \r\n        <h1 class=\"ad-title-text\">         \r\n          Why should we use LIBERTAS when we already have the best pricing based upon various comparisons to pricing registries?   \r\n\r\n           \r\n        \r\n       <\/h1>\r\n\r\n      <\/div>\r\n  \r\n      <div class=\"pt-accordion-details\">\r\n        \r\n         <p class=\"pt-detail-text\"> The pricing registries contain anonymously reported data of contract pricing, not rebate pricing. As a result, these pricing registries compare high pricing to high pricing so any entity ranking in the 90th percentile is really performing at the 50th percentile. LIBERTAS has developed a proprietary pricing database over the last 60 months comprised of manufacturing comparative pricing, which does not exist in the industry. This database was constructed 1) costs coupled with 2) the geographic packaged pricing models. This database is confirmed against non-US pricing. This proprietary pricing database allows LIBERTAS to achieve true best in class pricing. <\/p>\r\n       \r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n         \r\n    <div class=\"pt-accordion-box   9\">\r\n      <div class=\"pt-ad-title\">\r\n       \r\n        <h1 class=\"ad-title-text\">         \r\n          Who meets with the physician to tell them that prices are about to be lowered?  \r\n\r\n           \r\n        \r\n       <\/h1>\r\n\r\n      <\/div>\r\n  \r\n      <div class=\"pt-accordion-details\">\r\n        \r\n         <p class=\"pt-detail-text\"> Our panel of physicians meet with the implanting physicians to explain the model and address any concerns, including vendor participation, clinical research and product access.
