A method is provided for automated managed health care enhanced rate renewal which utilizes a common electronic request package of specific and immutable format having locked embedded formulas to perform the necessary calculations and macros that tailor the package to suit information needs from individual providers. Submitted data is automatically compiled and stored in database using a data extraction tool integrated into the electronic form. The present invention advantageously allows evaluation of managed care providers for price and quality in a portfolio manner. In addition, the use of a common base electronic request form facilitates easy integration of data updates and modifications for all potential providers.
