[AARON JURGAITIS SPEAKING ON SCREEN]
AARON JURGAITIS: With the amount of data that’s being gathered from individuals, from providers, from payers, I think we’re going to see an explosion in the type of analytics that we can do to help the health system work better.

[AARON JURGAITIS SPEAKING ON SCREEN]
AARON JURGAITIS: I think an incorrect assumption that people might have about actuaries is that we are solely number crunchers. Actuaries are real people. While we’re good with numbers, we leverage those numbers to make improvements. So it’s not just staring at spreadsheets all day. It’s thinking about what the numbers mean and how people might use those numbers.
[Text On Screen – Eliminate care fragmentation]
[AARON JURGAITIS SPEAKING ON SCREEN]
AARON JURGAITIS: One of the difficulties that we see in the health system is when you have fragmented care. When the different clinicians aren’t talking to one another, when patients are seeing multiple providers and there’s blocks in the flow of information. We can help eliminate some of that care fragmentation that the healthcare providers might experience on the, I’ll say on the back office, on the analytics side.
[Text On Screen – Opportunity for creativity]
[AARON JURGAITIS SPEAKING ON SCREEN]
AARON JURGAITIS: There’s a lot of opportunity for creativity in the type of analytics that we do. When we think about the data that’s available and the types of things that we can look at, I believe that we’re only limited by our imagination.
