"We Manage Health Plans for Businesses."

Mission, Vision and Values Statement

Mission

Gateway was formed with a commitment to facilitate partnerships with health care professionals and employers to deliver cost effective and high quality health care to employees. Our focus revolves around meeting the needs of employers who pay for care, employees who receive care, and providers who deliver care. We accomplish this through network management, disease management and wellness programs, and accurate and timely claims processing and data management.

Vision

Gateway Health Alliance is Virginia’s provider of choice for effective, proactive management of self-funded employer health plans. We constantly research and analyze industry trends and best practices while providing client-centered service that exceeds expectations.

Values

Gateway values integrity above all. We will put the needs of the client first.

Gateway believes in quality service the first time. We put forth our best efforts in every endeavor.

Gateway believes in informed decisions. In a complex industry, open and honest communication is key to success and growth, for us as well as our employer clients.

Gateway believes in healthy living. Taking control of health care costs begins with the individual. We lead by example.

Choices

One of the primary reasons Gateway Health Alliance was formed is to provide health benefit plans alternatives for businesses. Founded in 1994, Gateway has developed client partnerships with more than 70 Virginia employers with locations throughout the U.S.

Savings

Since we began operations, more than $200,000,000 has been saved for employers and employees through our provider/employer partnerships.

Our Clients

Whether self funded or fully insured, our clients enjoy flexibility of plan design, deep provider discounts, lower utilization cost and customer/member service that we’d put up against any other firm – hands down. In fact, we have never had a self-funded client tell us they wre leaving Gateway because we didn't deliver everything we promised. References are readily available upon request.

Our Providers

Gateway participating physicians are empowered by the Medical Management Committee to work with patients on a plan of care driven by need, not by bureaucracy. Before becoming part of our network, prospective physicians are screened by a rigorous credentialing process and must meet a number of criteria including education requirements, years of practice and record of service.

Our Provider Network

Relationships span the Commonwealth of Virginia, as well as, North Carolina. Partnerships with provider networks nationwide extend the coverage area from coast to coast and around the world.

Business Volume

Gateway presently serves more than 70 employers and their employees working at plants or sites throughout the United States. Gateway currently manages approximately 27,000 members. Our administrative/ technology partner, Primary PhysicianCare serves more than 130 client employers throughout the United States. Our combined membership exceeds 100,000.
