IllumiCare Bends the Cost Curve...

When providers get real-time clinical cost insights paired with performance transparency and incentivization, providers order fewer and less expensive tests and medicines. Clinical efficiency is good for patients and the bottom line.

And It's a Platform to Do So Much More

As an EMR-agnostic platform of apps that automatically appears on the same screen and with patient context, it gives power back to clinicians to control their workflows, improve cost/quality and bring some joy back to clinical practice.
