Seeing Clearly: Healthcare Price Transparency is Changing Network Decisions

Healthcare costs keep going up, and one of the biggest factors affecting cost, access, and outcomes is the network you choose and the quality of care it offers. For years, employers have made network decisions using broad averages and self-reported data that don’t always show the true cost of care.

That’s starting to change.

With healthcare transparency data now publicly available, employers have a new way to better understand the real cost of care. In this session, we’ll explore how this data can be combined, benchmarked, and analyzed to help clarify one of the most complex decisions employers face.

You’ll learn:

• Why healthcare costs keep rising—and how networks influence spending and outcomes
• What transparency data reveals—and what it doesn’t unless it’s analyzed carefully
• How combining transparency data with claims insights creates more useful benchmarks
• How employers can use these insights to evaluate networks and make buying decisions with added confidence

The session will also include a live demo of Network Navigator, a tool that uses healthcare pricing transparency data to compare and optimize network options side by side. You’ll also see how combining this data with claims information can help employers evaluate networks and identify opportunities to mitigate cost.

Whether you’re preparing for renewal or rethinking your long-term strategy, this webinar will help you understand what’s possible when network decisions are based on data—not assumptions.
