HealthEC, a KLAS-recognized end-to-end provider of Population Health Management (PHM) solutions, announced
today that physician-led Beaumont Accountable Care Organization (ACO) is the firm’s newest client, joining the growing
list of ACOs that use HealthEC’s PHM solutions for value-based care initiatives.

and the overall cost for the populations we serve," said Walter Lorang, Executive Director at Beaumont ACO.
Among the services HealthEC will provide are optimizing contract negotiations with payers, raising clinical and financial performance by closing gaps in patient care, and developing targeted, personalized care plans and interventions.
"HealthEC is honored to be chosen as the PHM provider for Beaumont ACO and anticipates helping the organization leverage opportunities for improving performance, health outcomes and costs across the ACO," said Arthur Kapoor, Chief Executive Officer at HealthEC.
