Direct healthcare contracting

Healthcare, without the middleman's price tag.

Employers and providers can now contract directly — on rates both sides can see — instead of routing every dollar through an insurance carrier. OpenNetworks is the platform that makes that possible.

The problem

Every healthcare dollar passes through someone who isn't the patient or the doctor.

How it works

The four-step loop behind every network.

01

Providers set their own rates and terms.

02

Purchasers build a network from those rates.

03

Claims are processed and repriced automatically.

04

Everyone sees the same numbers.

For both sides of the table

Built to work in both directions.
