Direct healthcare contracting

Healthcare,
rebuilt around
transparency.

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.

46%
Of covered workers are enrolled in PPO plans. Most employers still rely on traditional network models built around intermediaries.
18%
Of large employers directly contract with hospitals. Direct contracting remains the exception, not the norm.
