NASHVILLE, Tenn., June 8, 2023 – XSOLIS, the artificial intelligence (AI) technology company creating a more efficient healthcare system, announced today that Chief Medical Officer Dr. Heather Bassett and Vice President of Payer Strategy Michael Drescher will speak at America’s Health Insurance Plans (AHIP) 2023 Conference happening June 13-15, 2023, in Portland, Oregon.

In their main stage session on June 15, Dr. Bassett and Drescher will be joined by Chilmark Research Senior Analyst Jody Ranck to discuss how leveraging AI transforms utilization review and streamlines the payer-provider relationship to deliver on the growing market demand for more efficiency. As the healthcare industry seeks to reduce administrative waste for improved efficiency and collaboration amid resource constraints, XSOLIS also announced an unprecedented 177% growth in its payer connections since the company’s first presence at the AHIP Conference in 2022.

XSOLIS is proud to be a silver sponsor of the AHIP 2023 Conference, which brings together the people, ideas and solutions to guide greater health for years to come. In alignment with this year’s theme, “Share What’s Next, Now,” XSOLIS will share how a more collaborative future for payers and providers is possible, referencing the success of its national payer time study which revealed up to 83% faster workflows with utilization management case reviews.

In-person conference attendees will also discover how XSOLIS is connecting payers and providers through an AI-driven framework that predicts patient status determinations in real-time, leveraging the power of its proprietary Care Level ScoreTM.  Live demonstrations of the company’s CORTEX® platform at its exhibitor booth (1808) will show attendees how to reduce administrative burden and friction by creating a more objective view of medical necessity and increasing collaboration during utilization management.
