Change:Healthcare

edit

The change:healthcare platform offers that which so many have been looking for - a measurable way to gauge the cost-effectiveness of healthcare consumer decisions that both employer and employee can understand. We provide the means to help people become smarter consumers of healthcare.

The “Healthcare Consumerism Index (HCI)” is a unique measure of how effective employees are as healthcare consumers from year to year.

Change:healthcare analyzes claims data to determine the prices being paid for services and prescriptions. They draw out the high and low cost options within an employee population and present that information so that employees as consumers can understand how they did and they can modify their behavior to their benefit.
