Cambia needed to design, develop and deploy industry-leading healthcare applications that meet quickly changing regulatory mandates and consumer expectations.
Catalyte software engineers helped Cambia Health Solutions modernize its application portfolio, ship higher quality software faster, more thoroughly understand its existing data, make better care and budgetary decisions and create applications that exceed the expectations of its digitally savvy customers.
Cambia Health Solutions, a family of over 20 healthcare companies that empowers more than 70 million Americans nationwide, entrusted Catalyte to help it modernize its applications, create more consumer-centric experiences and launch innovative applications faster. Catalyte demonstrated its ability for rapid prototyping, creating customer-centric applications that meet regulatory mandates and presenting healthcare data in new ways that lead to better business decisions and improved outcomes.
Cambia values innovation and speed. To ensure that new ideas can get to market faster, it often uses a rapid prototyping process to speed products from idea to minimum viable product (MVP).
Catalyte was instrumental in this rapid prototyping process for several MVPs including:
For each product, client development teams were tasked to take an idea to market in approximately 90 days. In each instance, Catalyte brought specialized knowledge and new skills (React.js, Node.js, AWS) that allowed the client to complete projects on time.
Consumer’s digital-first expectations have forced healthcare organizations to offer better, more customer-centric applications or lose market share.
Catalyte helped Cambia develop and modernize several key products to make information on health plans easier to understand and decisions about coverage and care easier for consumers to make.
For two affiliate companies, Catalyte developed the web and mobile products that allowed consumers to quickly and efficiently research multiple healthcare plans available to them. The improved interface and functionality increased user engagement across digital and mobile channels.
Electronic health record (EHR) mandates and the digitalization of patient care have created vast new streams of data. Once these data sets are readily visible and clearly presented, they are valuable for controlling costs and improving outcomes.
For the two critical EHR projects, Catalyte turned large data pools into actionable intelligence. One project’s guided search capability handles over 40 million annual searches and helps members easily identify and drill down to complex health and cost data. The other product allows the client to quickly see if they meet Affordable Care Act mandates and create custom reports for further exploration of cost savings and outcomes.
“In the past two years, Cambia Health has cut its use of an offshore outsourcer in India by half, said Laurent Rotival, the company’s chief information officer. And the insurer has enlisted the help of Catalyte, an onshore outsourcer. ‘They can ramp up quickly,’ Mr. Rotival said.”
