Emdeon CIO Touts Virtues of Cognizant ITO, BPO Relationship

In a recent interview published in India’s The Hindu Business Line, Emdeon Inc. CIO Damien Creavin discusses the healthcare software and services player’s decision to partner with Cognizant for both IT and Business Process Outsourcing.

Highlighting Cognizant’s key business-technology contributions, Creavin pointed to a joint Emdeon-Cognizant onshore/offshore team working on a new system to interconnect hundreds of thousands of providers with hundreds of payers on a single platform. “Cognizant is in the thick of this. It has demonstrated in different ways an ability to help us do it quickly, by being highly organised or just being novel,” he said, noting how tricky healthcare data migrations can be. “Cognizant innovated and helped us do it in such a way that the migration was transparent to the customer.”
