Healthcare is evolving faster than ever. AI raised the bar for how fast decisions get made. Security threats are multiplying in real time. And the pressure to do more with less is relentless.
Legacy technology wasn’t built for any of this. It can’t support AI or agentic operations. And the longer payers wait to modernize, the harder it is to catch up.
That’s why Cognizant and AWS came together. Not as a typical partnership, but as a purpose-built collaboration between two healthcare technology leaders.

Accelerating transformation like never before
