Process        
When to review?

The best time to begin
planning your agency review
is  6 to 9 months out from the
end of your contract, OR after
5 years of service with the
same CMR/agency without a
review.  


An agency review does not
always lead to changing
agencies – but it ALWAYS
leads to better a better
program with more savings
and overall  consistency.
