These networks impact the pricing, administration, and quality of health insurance programs. They determine the basic competitiveness of healthcare markets, and their owners have become the defacto gatekeepers of innovation, flexibility and collaboration. Information is opaque, especially regarding the cost of service, and there are limited opportunities for users to make healthcare decisions based on cost. Compounding the problem: hundreds of isolated unique networks, maybe large for a market but lacking scale to the nation, all operating in their own silos, all with their own approach and protocols.

about us
OpenNetworks is the first U.S. health network cooperative, fostering collaboration among healthcare providers, employers, and services. By promoting transparency and reducing costs, the organization aims to revolutionize healthcare delivery through a member-owned, decentralized model.
A New World of
Capabilities. Relationships.
And possibilities.
Capabilities. Relationships.
And possibilities.
Our goal in creating OpenNetworks is to remove barriers to collaboration and innovation in how healthcare is financed and paid for. We believe removing those barriers will also drive innovations in how care is organized and delivered.
The power of an open network of healthcare providers offering competitive payment arrangements cannot be overstated. Almost every attempt at innovation in the healthcare industry runs into dominant, centralized organizations who ultimately govern who wins and who loses.
OpenNetworks seeks to simplify and improve the relationship between payers and healthcare providers. We also want to promote healthcare organizations of all kinds to explore the ‘art of the possible’. For this reason, our software is being architected to enable a multitude of organizations to offer their services through our platform. Whether those are services being offered to employers, to healthcare providers or to any other user of the platform.
Our goal is to build a library of APIs that enable innovation in every dimension of our work together. We believe disease management companies, value-based payment programs, revenue cycle management companies, identity verification companies, remote monitoring technologies and data analytics approaches, to name just a few, can find expression on our platform.
