What Intercare Holdings does

Intercare Holdings, Inc. is a privately-held US third-party administrator specializing in workers' compensation and liability claims administration. Founded in 1980 and headquartered in Rocklin, California, the company operates with 251-500 employees serving self-insured employers, risk pools, joint powers authorities, captive insurance programs, and public agencies nationwide. Its portfolio comprises four service lines — Workers' Compensation administration, Liability Services, the InterMed wholly-owned managed care subsidiary, and Risk Management Support — distributed through a relationship-based, enterprise field sales motion with quote-based, non-publicly disclosed pricing.

The operating model pairs veteran claims adjusters and clinical staff with structured processes to compress claim lifecycle costs. Clinical capability is anchored by InterMed, which delivers nurse-coordinated treatment planning, utilization review, return-to-work coordination, and proactive case management to reduce medical spend. Risk management consultants run pattern analysis on claims data, deliver on-site client training, and recommend policy changes to mitigate frequency and severity before incidents occur. A 24-hour early-contact engagement protocol, a dedicated Special Investigations Unit for fraud detection, and quantified case outcomes (a 91% customer satisfaction rating, a 99.8% reduction in a CMS reimbursement demand, and monthly medication cost reductions from $1,200 to $140) are central to the value proposition.

Technology infrastructure centers on the AvonRisk Portal, a client-facing web application providing claims search, incident reporting, policy information, and employee and employer data management. The company maintains an active go-to-market presence through industry conferences (PARMA, CAJPA, EWC, WRC, IRMI, CISA, CCWC), educational content marketing, and a LinkedIn presence. Industry recognition includes the 2021 US Captive Review 'Claims Handler of the Year' award and the 2020 Business Insurance 'Women to Watch' recognition for EVP of Liability Amy Evans; AICPA and URAC utilization review accreditations are visible on the corporate site.
