IMPROVE HEALTH PLAN ADMINISTRATION
Modernize processes to transform health plan operations
With Cognizant® Healthcare BPaaS, payers can rapidly modernize the processes necessary to support new healthcare delivery models.
Features & functionality
The Cognizant Healthcare Business Process-as-a-Service (BPaaS) solution allows payers to focus on core business opportunities and free up capital to invest in innovation. Our integrated software and services solution combines automation, expert insight and best-in-class industry processes and platforms in an outcome-driven, integrated service delivery model.
Core transaction processing
Cognizant’s outcome-driven BPaaS delivery model supports payers in the medicare advantage, managed medicaid, medicare part D, duals, PDP, medicare dupplement, commercial, individual and small group markets with core transaction processing for:
- Configuration

- Fulfillment
- Billing & financial reporting
- Claims/providers
- Encounters/RAPS
- Provider & member call center
- Mail Room and preprocessing services
- Analytics, reporting

Platform strategy over product strategy
Core IT modernization is achieved with access to the industry’s leading payer platform and ecosystem, which provides payers with a platform strategy rather than a product strategy. The high cost and stress of system changes and upgrades are eliminated by including maintenance and new releases within the Per Member, Per Month (PMPM) fee structure. With the Cognizant healthcare BPaaS solution, payers will always have current technology with built‑in scalability.
