In addition to supporting consumers with interactive health management tools, action plans and progress reports, HealthCAWS is focused on supporting provider needs related to their growing responsibility for the results of healthcare. Providers are taking on more performance risk for quality outcomes and financial risk for overall cost of care and HealthCAWS’ solutions are aimed at helping them be successful. To this end, Walter Olshanski, Senior Vice President of Key Bank Healthcare has been added to the HealthCAWS Advisory Board.

As a result, organizations like HealthCAWS are positioned to help enable the transition from fee-for-volume to fee-for-value.”
“The healthcare industry and marketplace are continuing to evolve daily. We have built our mission and technology to focus on quality and better value for every healthcare dollar we spend as a nation. We believe that by supporting consumers and providers in a way that that allows them to be successful in this new environment of accountability, we can accomplish that goal.
