Arcadia Enables High-Value Care with Advanced Interoperability and AI Solutions
February 18 2025 - 6:54AM
Arcadia® (arcadia.io), a leading data platform for healthcare,
today launched new solutions designed to help payers and providers
drive high-performing networks, simplify value-based care contract
creation, and enhance provider management efforts. The data
platform company also unveiled an analyst-friendly AI development
platform that activates customer data to deliver predictive
insights that drive actions that improve patient outcomes. Arcadia
will showcase these innovations at HIMSS25 and demonstrate how its
platform delivers actionable insights and measurable results.
Driving High-Value Care Through Complete Data and
Advanced Analytics
Delivering on the promise of Arcadia’s strategic acquisition of
CareJourney in June 2024, the company’s solutions support
high-value care by running on a differentiated foundation of
complete data:
- Third-party benchmarks data from CareJourney that helps
identify performance improvement opportunities
- Customers’ own data aggregated by Arcadia in its data platform
that helps customers act on those opportunities
With a commitment to standards-based interoperability, Arcadia
enables rapid data acquisition and aggregation of complete data at
scale and in a single platform. Research shows that the average
physician practice manages over 20 health plan contracts1 while the
average health system maintains nearly the same amount of EHR
instances across its networks.2 Without seamless solutions
that exchange and house such data, insights that drive action to
improve clinical and financial outcomes are lost.
In addition to building longitudinal patient records in a timely
and cost-effective manner, Arcadia layers on advanced analytics
applications — including those powered by AI — to enable its
customers to derive insights that power strategies like:
- Improving revenue through engaged and happy patients, which
supports higher star ratings
- Controlling costs by developing a network of providers that
exceed cost and quality benchmarks
- Driving efficiency and productivity by stratifying patients to
help care managers focus in the right places
“Delivering complete data in a single platform helps our
customers realize the strongest return on their data investments,
including immediate value on day one,” said Michael Meucci,
Arcadia’s President and CEO. “That value increases over time as our
solutions for value-based care serve as the groundwork for our
industry’s future.”
Showcasing the Latest Innovations at
HIMSS25
At HIMSS25, Arcadia will introduce several of its latest
innovations designed to support healthcare organizations in their
pursuit of operational and performance excellence:
- Network Modeler: A tool
powered by a database of intelligence on more than 745,000
providers nationwide that healthcare organizations can use to
design, build, and evaluate networks. The solution enables
organizations to use data to confidently expand into new
geographies, manage existing networks more effectively, and gain
visibility into population statistics to help ensure quality care,
care gap closure, cost efficiency, and an improved member
experience.
- Contract IQ: A tool that
simplifies the design, negotiation, and forecasting of value-based
care contracts. Collaborate with stakeholders in a unified
interface, forecast revenue through "what-if" tools, and automate
manual contracting processes. With Arcadia's Contract IQ,
organizations can reduce third-party actuarial spending by up to
$60,000 a month, improve returns on VBC contracts, and increase
revenue predictability.3
“We manage more than a dozen contracts with half a dozen payers,
which places a burden on our team to reconcile those contracts
and make sure we’re getting credit where credit is due,” said Julie
Grantz, Vice President of Value-Based Insights at Ochsner Health
Network. “Arcadia’s ContractIQ helps us forecast performance during
the year so we can course correct well in advance of receiving
final results.”
- Provider Intelligence: A significant
enhancement to our analytics engine that extracts insights from
first-party claims data across 250+ episodes of care. When paired
with population insights from comprehensive national benchmarks,
healthcare organizations can improve care team effectiveness by
identifying opportunities to intervene quickly. For example, a
provider can identify a patient starting a congestive heart failure
episode and act promptly to avoid gaps in care that could lead to
poor outcomes, high utilization, and avoidable
events.
- AI Factory: An analyst-friendly AI development
platform powered by Arcadia’s proprietary healthcare data asset to
predict patients’ needs so care teams can act without delay or
uncertainty. Analysts can use the tool to build and train their own
models or customize existing models to identify patients with
disease progression, rising risk, and the likelihood of an adverse
event. For example, analytics can identify patients with chronic
kidney disease who begin dialysis without proper treatment from a
nephrologist and feed that to care teams regularly so they can
prioritize care management efforts.
“Arcadia's ability to aggregate, harmonize, and analyze complex
healthcare datasets enables clients to identify at-risk
populations, implement precision medicine strategies, and enhance
financial sustainability through data-driven decision-making,” said
Black Book Research, which recently named Arcadia #1 in population
health data integration and analytics. “Clients noted significant
advancements in their data maturity, increased operational
efficiencies, and improved financial performance as direct results
of Arcadia's expertise in analytics-driven healthcare
transformation.”
