[Vendor] Equity Healthcare (www.equityhealthcare.com) First healthplan services provider to show BofB reduction in trend (and outperformance of national trend) confirmed by reduction in inpatient utilization using the utilization measurement “gold standard” to capture combined impact of all UM/DM/CM/wellness activities. [Comments/Qualifications] 
Sells exclusively to private equity firms and their portfolio companies, which are interested in getting savings, not showing savings. (The two concepts are polar opposites.) EH has lowered trend by total population health management, with savings confirmed by utilization reductions in the categories of care most amenable to such management.
