We help healthcare organizations to develop the technology foundations and capabilities—including agile at scale, DevOps, and modern architecture—to scale and sustain digital transformations.
Examples of our work
Payer digital transformation
When a large payer wanted to optimize administrative costs without disrupting business operations and market growth, we conducted a rapid diagnostic to identify digital opportunities across operational areas, redesigned five core journeys, and conducted an agile rollout of a multiyear road map, which led to more than $300 million in administrative-cost savings.
Digital capability building for a hospital system
When a large hospital system wanted to create a best-in-class digital experience for patients, we helped them understand the value at stake from digitizing three priority patient journeys. We mapped patient pain points, developed a conceptual digital architecture, and built digital prototypes. This targeted $200M in expected annual revenue growth and $100M+ in administrative and medical annual contribution impact within 3 years.
Personalized digital member support
A regional US payer wanted to use analytics and agile capabilities to improve member support improve quality, cost and access, so we created a predictive model and a personalized intervention and messaging strategy to help members make better healthcare decisions. The rapid diagnostic identified around $45 million in immediate value.
