Personalized care starts with data
Employees expect a more personalized health care experience — one that’s data-driven and customized to their unique needs. UnitedHealthcare is using advanced analytics, such as machine learning and artificial intelligence, to deliver access to more personalized care that aims to improve outcomes and lower costs.
Digital fuels the provider-patient relationship
Putting more digital tools and technology in the hands of providers — and, ultimately, employees and their families — empowers them to make more proactive, evidence-based health decisions. UnitedHealthcare believes the digital transformation we’re seeing in health care is key to building a more trusted provider-member relationship.
Strategic collaboration powers innovation
No organization can solve health care’s most complex challenges alone. It requires collaboration across the industry. The combined knowledge, experience and capabilities of UnitedHealthcare and key industry stakeholders has unlocked opportunities to deliver greater value to providers, employers and their employees.
