Health care is complex. As the system continues to evolve, urgent problems need to be solved. Friction, waste and unnecessary cost in health care result in negative experiences for health care providers, payers and – most critically – the patients they serve.
How to Drive Change
Opportunity:
Providing clinicians with the tools and data to make evidence-based decisions, at the point of care, will help address transparency and coordination challenges with payers and patients. By connecting the clinical and cost information, we can reduce costs while also closing gaps in care.
Opportunity:
Expand use of technology and integrated networks to help address inefficiencies and cut administrative waste between providers and payers. By creating a system to notify and address claims submissions, we can increase efficiency and eliminate overly complicated communications between providers and payers.

Opportunity:
Modernizing the financial side of health care with technology will help make the payment processes more efficient, reduce overall costs and empower patients to prepare for their future health care needs.
Health care is difficult but change is possible. We want to be part of the solution to fix the complexities. For that, we’re committed to creating a modern, high-performing health care system that improves health care for those we serve.
