Celebrating 20 years serving the self-insured community and five years as Vālenz® Health, we continue to address the unmet needs of the healthcare industry.

Vālenz® Health Celebrates Five Years of Market-Moving Impact

Uniting four companies as one brand, Valenz Health launched to the self-insured market at the 2019 Self-Insurance Institute of America (SIIA) National Conference in San Francisco, CA, where we introduced our promise to engage early and often for smarter, better, faster healthcare. Since that date in October 2019, our team has continued to innovate and work towards delivering on our mission to optimize the utilization of high-value healthcare for everyone.

Reflecting on the Past Five Years

Unified as Valenz Health and bolstered by organic and acquisitive growth over a five-year span, we offer a fully integrated platform of solutions that executes across the entire patient journey – from care navigation and management to payment integrity, plan performance and provider verification.

  • 2019: The United Claim Solutions Family of Companies, comprised of INETICO, NX Health Network, United Claim Solutions, and Zebu Compliance Solutions, relaunches as Valenz Health at the SIIA National Conference.
  • 2020: Valenz Health introduced new solutions for the self-insurance market, including vLens, an enterprise data and analytics platform; Valenz Market-Sensitive (VMS®) repricing methodology, a reference-based pricing (RBP) model; and care navigation through NaVcare.
  • 2021: Valenz Health acquired Kozani Health, integrating a new and innovative means for self-funded employers and the self-insured community to control costs across the life of a claim through a comprehensive bill review solution.
  • 2022: Across four acquisitions, Valenz Health integrated Certus Management Group Stop Loss, Inc. (CMG); Health Cost Control Inc.; Medical Cost Management Corporation, d.b.a. MCM Solutions for Better Health and its subsidiary, Med-Care Management, Inc, (MCM); and VerifPoint, now VPoint™. These acquisitions introduced population health, provider credentialing, stop loss, and further cost containment solutions into the Valenz Health platform.
  • 2023: Valenz Health announced a new equity investment from Kelso & Company, a leading middle market private equity firm with a shared vision for accelerating positive change in the delivery of healthcare for the self-insured industry. Valenz Health also acquired KISx Card, LLC, enhancing access to bundled solutions for high-cost surgical and imaging procedures.

  • 2024: Valenz Health ranked No. 2155 on the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing U.S. private companies and acquired Healthcare Bluebook, an industry-leading healthcare cost and quality navigation platform. By creating a single platform for high-value care that can yield greater transparency, flexibility and cost controls, Valenz Health enables self-insured employers to simplify healthcare and meet modern member needs through a consumer-driven approach. As a direct result of this growth, the company also recently announced the official relocation of our corporate headquarters to the suburban Philadelphia area of Radnor, PA.
