IRVINE, Calif., Feb. 02, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CorVel Corporation (NASDAQ: CRVL) announced its results for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. Earnings per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 were 63 cents. Revenues for the period were $142 million. Earnings per share for the nine months ended December 31, 2020 were $1.74 and revenues for the nine months ended December 31, 2020 were $407 million.

Although the global pandemic continues, CorVel’s business performance in this quarter improved over the December 2019 quarter. This result is attributed to advances in operational performance in addition to increased business development. New sales were a record for the calendar year, with particular success in claims administration and CERiS commercial health review business.

CorVel's technical foundation supported the agility to quickly transition to work from home, easily scale to meet the tenfold increase in telehealth demand, and effectively respond to evolving customer needs. From a strategic perspective, the Company’s position and ability to continue adapting, responding and thriving in this dynamic environment is strong.

The health market is evolving their payment integrity processes to a prepay approach, which requires bill review to be completed within stringent time requirements. The CERiS processing operation, which has been gaining momentum going into this year, was developed to support prepayment processing. By leveraging technology and advanced analytics to automate tasks and compress processing time, clients are able to make payments with confidence that billing and coding information is accurate.
