Welcome to MedicalQuest
For over 15 years, Peregrine Management Corporation has designed and delivered high performance databases maintained specifically to meet the demanding needs of a volatile Health Care Delivery system. Professional providers, service providers, hospitals and health plans are included in regional databases that are maintained at an extremely high level of accuracy.
The sustained volatility within the health care community results from the constant relocation of professionals, the centralization and decentralization of departments within organizations, mergers, acquisitions, and business initiations and failures.
Annually:
- The average practicing Physician has 1.7 practice locations and 2.3 Hospital affiliations.
- 42% of Physicians in the state will change at least one practice location annually.
- 46% of Service Providers will change a service location by adding or closing a location.
- 78% of service providers will change their service level and type.
Peregrine has developed processes that allow us to maintain very accurate information with a minimum of intrusion on the providers and institutions that we serve. These processes require that we review each provider and their status within the State only when we find that a change has occurred. For most of our verification calls, we are simply confirming a change that we are already aware of. This and other processes limit our intrusion on the increasingly limited time that providers have or are willing to share with us.
We also believe that it is important to share our information with the entire community in a way that makes the information valuable to the broad medical community. For this reason we have made the Medical Quest web site available to the entire provider community.
