Cambia Health Solutions

We’ve long been an advocate and leader in advancing a more connected, person-centered healthcare system and recently signed on to two voluntary commitments with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services as part of its Health Tech Ecosystem initiative. This initiative reflects our long-standing belief that better data and better collaboration lead to better care. As CMS Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz noted, "Prior authorization won't be fixed by technology alone. It requires the entire healthcare system to work together." We couldn't agree more and we're committed to leading that work. Read more: https://lnkd.in/ghHFqd6f
