Validation Institute Announces Credibility Guarantee

Woburn, MA  – (December 1, 2020) – Validation Institute (VI), an independent, objective, third party organization focused on changing health care, is pleased to announce a unique, powerful Credibility Guarantee aimed at helping employers easily identify high-performing health care solution providers.
Validation Institute now offers the customers of our validated solution providers up to a $25,000 guarantee. This guarantee confirms that a validated solution provider will, in fact, achieve what the validation language on a marketing claim says it will.  “The goal is to take the financial risk off employers and improve healthcare benefits for employees, by making it easy to identify high-performance healthcare solutions and providers” said Benny DiCecca, CEO, Validation Institute.
To enforce the Credibility Guarantee, validation language may be included in a customer contract on behalf of the validated solution provider, such as:

If Customer feels that Contractor did not achieve what its validation language says it achieves, Customer may submit a claim up to $25,000 to the Validation Institute (VI). VI will review the claim and either pay it, offer a smaller payout, or request a binding, final finding by an arbitrator assigned by the American Arbitration Association.

According to Validation Institute Senior Advisor, Al Lewis: “This unique self-imposed penalty draws a bright line between a Validation Institute validation and any other. It’s easy for us because in 6 years, covering hundreds of validations, we’ve never been challenged and probably never will be. By contrast, most so-called validations fall apart the second they are exposed to direct sunlight. Sometimes the perps even admit it.”
