HFS assessed the capabilities of 21 healthcare payer service providers to help buyers—including government agencies, health plans and self-insured employers—find the service provider that best suits their needs in the evolving healthcare market.

There’s a blurring of industry lines with an increasing number of non-traditional healthcare enterprises entering the $4 trillion U.S. healthcare market, leading to positive market disruptions that offer opportunities to overcome inefficiencies, poor outcomes, and increasing costs.

The payer market is seeing many shifts as consumer expectations evolve and financial pressures grow. One of these shifts involves vertical integrations among payers, which is providing healthcare enterprises the opportunity to move away from dwindling revenues and shrinking margins.

“We’re thrilled that Emids was recognized for its work in providing payers the impactful technology solutions they need to navigate the changing healthcare landscape,” said Praveen Soti, Emids President for Payer and Digital Solutions.

Praveen Soti, added that Emids continues to deliver an array of offerings including design-led engineering, automation, advanced data analytics, core platforms and rapid low code engineering that have supported payer organizations in delivering an outstanding member experience, reducing the cost of care and supporting the transition to value based care.

Emids, a leader in digital engineering and transformation solutions to the healthcare and life sciences industries, has been positioned by Everest Group as a Major Contender in the Life Sciences Digital Services landscape, according to Everest Group’s Life Sciences Digital Services PEAK Matrix® Assessment 2022.  

Everest Group evaluated the life sciences digital capabilities of 31 service providers and mapped them on the PEAK Matrix® framework, providing an objective, data-driven comparative analysis. In the report, all providers were positioned based on their level of market impact, as well as vision and capability.  

Healthcare enterprises have made digital adoption the bedrock of their growth strategies to optimize processes, realize cost efficiencies, and enhance member experiences. They are leveraging digital services for value-based care and population health management, as well as to comply with changing regulations. Emids continues to be a trusted partner of these healthcare enterprises. 

Past recognitions from Everest Group include positioning Emids as a Major Contender in Healthcare Payer Digital Services in 2022, a Leader in the Healthcare IT Services provider landscape in 2021, and in 2020, positioning Emids as a Major Contender in the Healthcare Digital Services provider landscape.

Emids, a leader in digital engineering and transformation solutions to the healthcare and life sciences industries, has been positioned amongst the HFS Top 10: HCP Service Providers 2022 report.

HFS assessed and rated 17 service providers that serve healthcare service providers from primary care, acute care, specialty care and post-acute care. The report examined service providers’ role in the dynamic care delivery industry, assessing and rating participants across a defined series of innovation, execution, OneOffice™ alignment, and voice of the customer.

The healthcare provider market is seeing unprecedented challenges and Emids is uniquely positioned to guide them through this shift to digital. The pandemic exacerbated physician/caregiver burnout and the impending talent shortage is putting emphasis on how automation can remove repetitive tasks and how the usability of digital solutions used in every day work can ease the burden on both patients and providers.

The push to digital is also putting pressure on providers to provide the experiences that patients are used to from leading consumer brands through tools like Digital Front Doors and virtual assistants that can simplify appointment booking or symptom checking/management.

The data that all these new and existing tools create also must be made accessible, usable and connected in order to leverage AI/ML or advanced analytics to improve patient outcomes.
