Chapman Kelly achieved its growth by helping organizations control the rising costs within the healthcare system. The majority of the company's growth was achieved through conducting dependent eligibility audits. The firm also provides medical claim audit services for employers and managed care organizations. "A dependent eligibility audit is one of the most effective tools that employers can implement to reduce their costs and maintain the current level of benefits for employees who are eligible for coverage," said Tony Schy, a Partner with Chapman Kelly.  A 2010 survey of employers by the National Business Group on Health indicated that employers rank dependent eligibility audits as one of the "most effective steps to control healthcare costs".

Chapman Kelly's growth was fueled not only by the effectiveness of its cost-containment services, but also by its innovative use of digital content marketing to connect with potential customers. The company has been profiled as a 'best practice' example of connecting to business customers during national marketing conferences, in national marketing publications, and in books on sales and marketing. The company's website for its dependent eligibility services (www.DependentCheck.com) contains the most comprehensive set of information on dependent audits available on the web. Chapman Kelly focuses on educating and providing value to potential customers throughout their process of choosing a service provider.
