When asked about Premier’s services, one customer executive remarked, “Premier is our go-to expert around anything healthcare related, especially value-based care. We view them as the experts on healthcare policy. Premier consultants are always very responsive to questions and they really get to know our organization. We have been working with some of the same people for several years. They understand our organization, so when we talk about things, it is more of a collaboration.”

Working with hundreds of hospitals and health systems as well as physician groups, Premier has been a recognized leader in enabling providers succeed in value-based care models such as accountable care organizations (ACOs). The company offers a broad range of clinical, financial and operational consulting services, as well as market-leading strategic and performance improvement collaboratives.

“Each year, thousands of healthcare professionals across the globe take the time to share their voice with KLAS. They know that sharing their perspective helps vendors to improve and helps their peers make better decisions. These conversations are a constant reminder to me of how necessary accurate, honest, and impartial reporting is in the healthcare industry. The Best in KLAS report and the awards it contains set the standard of excellence for software and services firms. Vendors who win the title of Best in KLAS should celebrate and remember that providers now accept only the best from their products and services. The Best in KLAS award serves as a signal to provider and payer organizations that they should expect excellence from the winning vendors,” said Adam Gale, CEO of KLAS Research.
