Our Story
A Pioneering Force in Population Health Management
From the very start, our focus was on advanced data analytics that deliver real solutions. Our store begins in August of 2009 when our eConnectors technology was developed. In 2010, the principals formed IGI Health, LLC, to deliver solutions that enable healthcare organizations to manage member health by aggregating information from a variety of sources and translating that knowledge into action.
HealthEC’s principals developed a claims clearinghouse that is still one of the largest in the State of Minnesota. In 2011, the team built and deployed the technology that supports Health e-cITi NJ, Inc., a health information exchange (HIE) created to connect New Jersey caregivers with surrounding regional healthcare industry stakeholders.
By 2012, health organizations were facing an ever-growing challenge to access and effectively use data to drive value-based care. We saw an opportunity to help health systems—and patients—thrive by gathering all available data and combining it with machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) methods.
Building on our expertise in data exchange, analytics, and workflow, in 2013, IGI Health was renamed HealthEC, LLC, with the “EC” representing everyone connected. The new name better aligned with the technological benefits we provide to our clients.
HealthEC subsequently developed and issued a full spectrum of solutions to help organizations manage population health and deliver on the promise of value-based care, launching our UDW, 3D Analytics, and CareConnect modules in 2013, 2014, and 2015, respectively. In 2018, HealthEC became a subsidiary of HEC Investments, LLC.
Today, we offer a full spectrum of analytic solutions, including a flagship PHM platform. Our staff of 135 employees support a multiplicity of clients across the healthcare industry.
Because we’ve remained focused on population health management, offer flexible solutions that evolve with client needs, and deliver actionable insights precisely when and where they are needed, health organizations of all sizes trust HealthEC to help them deliver on the vision and promise of value‐based care.
