About HCIQ
Health Cost IQ (HCIQ) exists to help self-insured entities (employers, PEOs, captives, educational consortiums, and more) save money within their health plans. Based on data collected and analyzed by HCIQ, up to 50% of private employer health costs can be categorized as wasteful or inefficient. Health Cost IQ enables its customers to mine their health plan data and uncover issues such as costly inefficiencies, waste, fraud, and abuse.
Leveraging its proprietary HealthAnalytIQ software platform, HCIQ can identify problematic utilization patterns and risk trends, forecast future healthcare costs, predict potentially high-use, high-cost members, and identify medical claims payment irregularities and pharmacy utilization inefficiencies.
Armed with these insights, customers are empowered to make strategic changes in their health plan spending and realize significant savings. Customers reclaim an average of 20-30% annually, resulting in hundreds of thousands of dollars for midsize entities to tens of millions of dollars for larger enterprises, in reduced health plan spend.
Our Story
Health Cost IQ was inspired by founder Jude Odu’s doctoral research into rising healthcare costs in the United States. He discovered that although wasteful healthcare spending at the national level has hovered around 30% for years, the situation within private employers was far worse.
In response to this huge and lingering problem, he launched Health Cost IQ to help self-insured entities uncover costly health plan inefficiencies, waste, fraud, and abuse. Since the company’s inception, Health Cost IQ’s software platform has identified and helped customers save millions on their annual healthcare spend, with an average cost reduction of 20-30% after the first year. For three years running, Health Cost IQ has been SOC 2 certified. This respected cybersecurity compliance process verifies that client data acquired, stored, and processed by HCIQ is done with the utmost integrity, confidentiality, privacy, and security.
