  • Testimonials

    “Vibra Health Plan is a start-up Medicare Advantage company located in Central Pennsylvania. We are scheduled to begin open enrollment in October of 2016 with our first official membership in January 2017. Through CHIME Cooperative Member Services, we connected with Gallitano and O’Connor to help with our core system contract negotiations. Gallitano and O’Connor did an amazing job. Their depth of knowledge in software, hosting, implementation services, service level agreements, and more is outstanding. Dennis, Karen and Marc helped us navigate through the legal maze with relative ease and I believe that the final contracts fully represent the best interests of Vibra Health Plan. I plan on using their services for future contract negotiations and would definitely recommend them to prospective clients.”

    – Marie Roof, CIO, Vibra Healthcare System

     

    “We wanted to change who we were using for our security services and when we looked at the offered listings, CynergisTek rose to the top. They offered a program through CHIME with bundled services at a discount that didn’t require us to pick through options. It was a well put together program, but we were also allowed the flexibility to assemble according to our needs. The offering they had through the CHIME partnership was a really good foundational place for us to start that eliminated a lot of upfront questions. I think that knowing they have partnered with CHIME creates a beneficial level of trust.”

    -Brian Sterud, MBA, CHCIO, CIO at Faith Regional Health Services
