Many customers are experiencing the power of Patra.

The Patra Team has helped to drive efficiencies in our office. These efficiencies have included a reduction of time needed of the team to process enrollments in carrier portals among other things. The extra time has allowed us more time to ensure we’re able to meet our company goals in addition to the needs of our clients... and, the quality of their work is exceptional. It’s very rare to see an error by the Patra Team.

Patra designed a workflow plan specific to our needs. Our average task processing time has decreased by 33%, our annual expenses related to outsourced activities have decreased roughly 55%, and Patra has helped us realize over $2.2M in aggregate expense savings to date. Our enhanced profitability has subsequently allowed us to accelerate reinvestment capital back into our aggressive growth initiatives.
