Data on a Touch Pad

At the heart of who we are lies research and advocacy.

Arete Healthcare conducts research aimed at identifying care pathway and patient experience attributes that maximize value. Leveraging robust data sources—including commercially insured ETG data, machine-readable files (MRFs) from commercial and government payers, and patient and provider data from electronic health records—our research serves as the foundation for our advocacy programs, driving meaningful advancements in value-based care.
