Collaboration combines healthcare strategy, technology and patient navigation to improve care delivery and value-based performance
CHICAGO, Aug. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Impact Advisors, a leading healthcare management consulting firm, announced a strategic partnership with Patient Engagement Advisors (PEA), a national care navigation and population health company. Together, the organizations will help health systems and health plans turn care strategies into coordinated, completed services for patients.
The partnership combines Impact Advisors' expertise in healthcare strategy, operations, technology transformation and value-based care with PEA's technology-enabled patient navigation and care delivery services. The joint offering will support patients from the point of care through referrals, medications, nutrition, transportation and other services that can affect recovery and long-term health.
"Healthcare organizations have invested heavily in value-based care strategies and technology, but many still struggle to consistently connect patients with the services they need," said Anwer Khan, managing director at Impact Advisors. "Our partnership with PEA brings together strategy and execution to help clients improve outcomes, reduce avoidable utilization and strengthen performance under value-based arrangements."
Founded in 2008 following research conducted at Cleveland Clinic, PEA supports health systems, employers and payers through on-site teams, mobile logistics and virtual patient services. Its approach helps identify patient needs at the point of care, coordinate follow-up services and confirm that care has been completed.
"Impact Advisors and PEA share a commitment to helping healthcare organizations achieve measurable results," said Jeff Moreland, chief executive officer of Patient Engagement Advisors. "By combining Impact Advisors' strategic and technology expertise with our patient navigation and care delivery capabilities, we can help our clients close gaps in care and create a more connected experience for patients."
The partnership is designed to help provider and payer organizations reduce readmissions and emergency department utilization, improve patient experience and quality measures, strengthen network integrity and better manage value-based risk. It also supports organizations operating across both fee-for-service and value-based reimbursement models.
