FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- (Business Wire)

Conduent Incorporated (Nasdaq: CNDT), a global technology-driven business solutions and services provider, today announced that NelsonHall has named the company a Leader in its 2026 Healthcare Payer Agility & Innovation NEAT evaluation. Conduent earned Leader status in the Overall market segment, reflecting its ability to deliver immediate operational value while supporting payers’ evolving transformation requirements.

NelsonHall’s NEAT assessment evaluates vendors on their delivery excellence, innovation maturity, and readiness to support future client needs. The report highlights several factors that contributed to Conduent’s Leader ranking:

  • A cohesive modernization strategy centered on automation, GenAI, and enhancements to the Healthcare Solution Platform (HSP) payer suite.
  • Planned HSP advancements, such as supporting multiple lines of business, configurable workflows, and cloud‑ready architecture.
  • A scalable commercial model, with approximately 75–80% of commercial constructs priced on a per‑member‑per‑month (PMPM) basis to align value to outcomes.

“Conduent was identified as an overall leader in Healthcare Payer Agility and Innovation due to its delivery modernization approach and sustained investment in automation and GenAI. Its focus on enhancing the HSP payer suite supports flexibility as clients’ operational requirements evolve,” said Bilal Chaudhry, Principal Analyst, Healthcare & Insurance, NelsonHall.
