HPIR holds spring and fall sessions for members to hear from a select group of healthcare innovators.

“Our mission at HPIR is to dramatically accelerate the evaluation and adoption of high-impact and high-efficacy innovations by providing our members with a unique, differentiated and robust approach to identify solutions aligned to their strategic agendas,” said Paul Sterling, Chief Operating Officer of HPIR. “Our health plan members selected Linkwell and nine other innovators to present at our fall roundtable. Linkwell’s unique approach and achievements in content marketing drove the most interest among our members, making them an obvious choice for the Traction Award.”

“Linkwell is honored to win this prestigious award,” said Nathan Adams, President and Chief Executive Officer at Linkwell Health. “Member engagement has never been more important—whether it’s driving members to get important screenings, educating them on plan features, or simply helping members understand which Medicare plan they selected.”
