Welcome to SFUR
Medical Cost Containment and URAC Certified Medical Independent Review Organization
SFUR is a physician driven organization offering services of every medical specialty through a panel of 600 board certified physicians.
On the medical cost containment end of our business, we have reviewed and negotiated thousands of medical bills resulting in savings 70% of the time to our payer customers. Our results speak for themselves. Typically, if our payer customers pay a fixed fee for our services, they will generate a 400% return on investment because of the savings we generate. If our payer customers opt for percent of savings model, where SFUR only gets paid if savings are generated, the return on investment is over 1,500% to our payer customers.
On the UR/UM and Peer Review end of our business, we have handled thousands of cases for both the healthcare provider and payer community.
