Annual awards program recognizes outstanding health and medical technology products and companies

NantHealth, Inc. (NASDAQ: NH), a leading provider of enterprise solutions that help businesses transform complex data into actionable insights, today announced that its NaviNet Open platform has been selected as the winner of the “Healthcare Insurance Innovation Award” in the sixth annual MedTech Breakthrough Awards program conducted by MedTech Breakthrough, an independent market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies, and products in the global health and medical technology market. This is the second year in a row NantHealth has won a MedTech Breakthrough award. In 2021, the company was named winner of the “Best Overall MedTech Software” award for its Eviti Connect platform by MedTech Breakthrough.

“Our continued drive for excellence in healthcare has seen us develop NaviNet Open to benefit all stakeholders in the healthcare ecosystem. Health plans can transform themselves from organizations traditionally viewed as gatekeepers to active participants in improving the quality of care at all stages and dramatically increasing process efficiencies,” said Ron Louks, chief operating officer at NantHealth.

NaviNet Open is a payer-provider collaboration platform that facilitates provider engagement and generates reliable, actionable data throughout the continuum of care delivery. With NaviNet Open, payers and providers benefit from increased operational efficiency, streamlined communication, and significant savings.

The NaviNet Open solutions deliver rich transactional and interactive workflows that meet payers’ business and technical needs. The flexible integration with the payers’ backend systems and third-party applications means information comes directly from the source in real-time. Configurable applications allow for rapid implementation specific to each payer’s data and business requirements.

As a two-time MedTech Breakthrough award winner, in 2021 NantHealth was recognized with the “Best Overall MedTech Software” award for its Eviti Connect for Oncology platform, which streamlines the authorization of cancer treatment, ensuring prescription of high-quality, high-value care and setting patients on the path to appropriate treatment sooner. It also validates decisions with evidence-based medicine and payer policies before treatment begins. The automated process reduces the administrative time involved in obtaining and providing authorizations, aligning all parties around value-based care.

The mission of the MedTech Breakthrough Awards is to honor excellence and recognize the innovation, hard work, and success in a range of health and medical technology categories, including Telehealth, Clinical Administration, Patient Engagement, Electronic Health Records (EHR), Virtual Care, Medical Devices, Medical Data and many more. This year’s program attracted more than 3,900 nominations from over 15 different countries worldwide.

“The healthcare industry continues to move from fee-for-service to fee-for-value reimbursement, and as health plans expand these value-based care models and create new products, they need to adopt solutions that help them improve provider alignment while exchanging critical information all along the patient care journey,” said James Johnson, managing director, MedTech Breakthrough. “NantHealth’s ‘breakthrough’ NaviNet Open platform delivers on this need, leading to reduced manual processes through decreased administrative complexity, and ultimately higher quality, more cost-effective care that directly benefits patients. We extend our sincere congratulations to NantHealth on winning the ‘Healthcare Insurance Innovation Award’ for 2022.”
