Insights to Transform Network Performance Through Affiliation Intelligence

Health plans are working to turn complex data into actionable insights—but one persistent challenge is understanding how providers and facilities are affiliated. Without clear visibility into these relationships, network design can become inefficient, contracting may slow, and member satisfaction can be impacted.

This webinar will explore how affiliation insights help payers build smarter networks. By focusing on contracting entities rather than individual providers, health plans can improve performance, reduce surprise billing, and make better decisions. We will share practical strategies to help attendees improve their network strategy using affiliation intelligence. Using real-world examples and data analysis, the session will demonstrate how affiliation data enhances network design, streamlines operations, and mitigates surprise billing risk—all within existing workflows.

Bob will be joined by a VP of Network management from a Regional Health System.
