February 06 2020 - 9:00AM
HMS (NASDAQ: HMSY), a leading provider of coordination of benefits,
payment integrity and population health management solutions, today
announced that the company was awarded the 2020 Best in KLAS
designation for Care Management Solutions. The award for its care
management software platform Essette was announced in the 2020 Best
in KLAS: Software & Services Report, which is based on
thousands of verified customer interviews conducted by
highly-regarded analysts at KLAS Research over a 12-month period.
The 2020 Best in KLAS is a recognition of outstanding efforts to
help healthcare organizations in their quest to deliver quality
patient care. The Best in KLAS designation is awarded only in those
software and services market segments that have the broadest
operational and clinical impact on healthcare organizations.
“Providers and payers demand better performance, usability, and
interoperability from their vendor partners every year,” said Adam
Gale, president of KLAS Research. “Best in KLAS winners set the
standard of excellence in their market segment. Earning a Best in
KLAS award should both excite and humble the recipients. It serves
as a signal to payers and providers that they should expect only
the best from the winning vendors.”
Care Management with Access to Real-time Data to
Support Evidence-based Best Practices
Top-performing care management solution, Essette, is part of
HMS’ comprehensive Population Health Management platform that
enables health plans to reduce costs, enhance engagement and
improve outcomes throughout the member lifecycle. Essette is
cloud-based, which offers all users unified access to the same
real-time data and tools regardless of their location, while
speeding new installations and updates.
HMS’ Population Health Management platform is comprised of three
solutions — Elli, Eliza and Essette — which work together, or as
components to help healthcare organizations gain comprehensive
insights across the care continuum into knowing who is at risk,
what to do about it and how to encourage members to act on their
own health.

prescriptive analytics — can help healthcare organizations identify
which member to focus on and what can be done to help address
hidden and rising risk.
- Eliza — providing consumer health engagement
programs rooted in behavioral-science methodologies
— helps engage members at the right time, through the right channel
with the right message.
- Essette — featuring a modular care management software platform
offering utilization management, case management and population
health solutions — provides healthcare organizations with a
comprehensive data set and real-time, AI-driven analytics to help
focus care on the members most in need.
