Cognosante produces powerful results for our customers and the communities they serve.
Cognosante is a leading provider of health IT solutions, business process outsourcing services, and consulting. We provide our clients with meaningful insights, increased performance, and greater integration across programs, systems, and populations.
With deep expertise in areas including health insurance marketplaces, health data standards, and Medicaid enterprise systems, we apply an innovative, integrated approach to navigating the challenges of healthcare reform. Our experts solve the most complex problems with creativity, flexibility, and efficiency.
Our success is driven by our obsession with positive results: we simply do not let problems stand in our way. As a result, our relationships with clients and partners endure.
Success begins with giving back.
At Cognosante, we are on a mission to improve healthcare for Americans. Through meaningful collaboration with clients and partners, we overcome barriers daily to ensure more Americans have access to healthcare insurance. We also work tirelessly to improve the healthcare experience for consumers and providers alike in the midst of healthcare reform. We truly believe that we can work together to transform the healthcare system in the U.S.
This mission to transform healthcare now extends to solving critical issues for those among us who have sacrificed so much. Cognosante acquired Business Information Technology Solutions (BITS) in October 2016 to put industry-leading healthcare expertise to work on behalf of Veterans, a community facing complex healthcare needs and barriers. The union of Cognosante and BITS is designed to help the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) become more efficient and responsive so that Veterans receive better, faster, and more personalized care—the quality healthcare they’ve earned and deserve.
We speak the language of health IT. We understand the challenges providers and payers face, and we care about the obstacles that beneficiaries have to overcome. It’s time to bring that expertise together for our Veterans.
