The Health Plan Renaissance: How Next-generation BPaaS is Ushering a New Era of Efficiency
June 27, 2025US health insurance carriers face escalating pressures, from soaring costs and workforce shortages to rising member expectations and complex compliance demands. In this environment, traditional administrative processes and outdated systems are proving inadequate. To address these challenges, health plans are embracing next-generation Business-Process-as-a-Service (BPaaS) as a strategic transformation enabler. Unlike earlier models, next-generation BPaaS integrates cloud-based platforms, generative and agentic AI, digital twins, and robust data strategies into unified, scalable service ecosystems.

Navigating Value-based Care (VBC) amid AI and Economic Uncertainty for Healthcare Providers
May 08, 2025The shift from fee-for-service to Value-based Care (VBC) is increasing due to payer mandates and the long-term promise of improved outcomes and lower costs.
