Helion
Helion is a healthcare technology and services firm that helps payers cultivate high-performing networks while empowering providers to operate at their best—and in doing so, help patients heal better. Our end goal is health and healing in the home, but our solutions create value along a broader part of the health care continuum. Through the added intelligence we bring, provider organizations can deliver better network performance for payers, while payers can provide compensation to providers that reflects their true value. Best of all, patients receive better care and an improved experience. Helion combines payer, provider, clinical, technological, and strategic perspectives on home and community care. Our metrics and algorithms are based on proprietary datasets and tailorable models that learn from data over time to provide better insights and drive bigger cost-savings and improved care. Our approach doesn’t just generate increased value in one year. It delivers increased value every year. Our solutions focus on home care solutions for payers and providers because patients are happier and can heal faster at home. With the right tools in the hands of the right providers, patients can receive a broader range of care —care that helps them do better and avoid future complications in their preferred environment. That means more value for payers and provider organizations, and better outcomes and more satisfaction for patients.
