Orion Health, a leading population health management company, recently announced that Chilmark Research named the company the top-ranked vendor in its annual report on Clinician Network Management (CNM). Out of 16 vendors analyzed in the report, Orion Health received the highest rankings, with A- grades in the Market Execution, Market Vision, Product Capabilities, and Product Vision categories. The Chilmark Research report, 2014/15 Clinician Network Management Market Trends Report, was released December 11, 2014.

This Chilmark report explores the impact of the changes unfolding in the healthcare market. Specifically, it documents that healthcare organizations are no longer strictly interested in data exchange, but instead are seeking comprehensive solutions that enable clinically integrated networks to support population health management. As stated in the report, “Orion Health surged to the top of the class this year, earning A-minuses across the board for its expanding portfolio of deployed solutions and growing list of customers. As an independent vendor of CNM solutions, Orion Health is emblematic of the trend among independents to deliver application-level services that leverage the ability to aggregate data and move it around customers’ clinician networks. Orion Health has improved its solution set and market standing considerably in the last year, which enabled it to surpass Medicity, our top-rated vendor for the previous two reports.”

“Orion Health understands and delivers on the market’s need for comprehensive, end-to-end solutions that support all aspects of population health to help influence care processes and enhance clinical decision making,” said Paul Viskovich, President, Orion Health. “This impressive Chilmark ranking is a testament to Orion Health’s dedication to delivering effective solutions and services that improve care coordination and help organizations better serve patient populations.”
