CLEAR

CLEAR is a powerful, intuitive research platform that delivers a vast collection of public and proprietary records on people and businesses, along with associated social media data and news. It includes relevant healthcare industry and key provider content – such as federal and state sanctions, professional licensing information, and National Provider Identifier numbers – and combines it with timely information on criminal history; death records; bankruptcies; judgments and liens; and address, phone, vehicle, and utility records. Through automated analysis of this rich content, CLEAR can pinpoint data aberrations and inconsistencies that may warrant further investigation and support the removal of fraudulent healthcare providers from Medicare and Medicaid payrolls, which can lead to the recovery of billions of dollars in wasteful spending. In fact, CLEAR is relied upon for the most difficult fraud cases in all federal CMS offices, and in approximately half of all state healthcare departments.
