Accolade , a Seattle-based leader in personalized advocacy solutions for employers has acquired MD Insider , a Santa Monica, CA-based provider of machine learning-enabled physician performance transparency. Enabled by the acquisition of MD Insider, Accolade is launching new solution called Accolade Total Care that combines data-driven physician quality insights with cost transparency to ensure members have the best health outcomes while reducing costs for them and their employers. Machine Learning Enabled Physician Performance Transparency
Founded in 2012, MD Insider’s machine learning platform produces experiential and performance insights on millions of providers across the healthcare system. MD Insider’s team of data scientists, software engineers, and healthcare experts has developed a platform that ingests and enriches huge volumes of the latest performance data about physicians—billions of rows of data from thousands of institutions and millions of doctor-patient interactions and events. Analyzing this data, the platform algorithmically identifies key physician performance insights in areas of experience and quality, which enables proprietary matching of patients with the right doctors. Accolade Total Care: Guiding People to their Best Primary Care Doctors and Specialists
Accolade Total Care provides extensive intelligence on provider quality and cost to members as they conduct their own provider searches, and to the Accolade Health Assistant® and nurse representatives supporting them when they need help. Understanding the member’s care needs, the nurse uses data intelligence generated from 13+ billion claims representing 255 million unique patients, 950,000 physicians, and 1.8 million total providers to present the best primary care physician or specialist options to the member, so that the member can make a more informed decision. Provider Quality Insights Gained through the Acquisition of MD Insider 
With the acquisition of MD Insider, Accolade gains access to a world-class machine learning platform that produces experiential and performance insights on millions of providers across the healthcare system. This intelligence, gained through the company’s acquisition of MD Insider, enables Accolade members and nurses to use an intelligent platform to analyze physician quality based on a wide range of factors, including diagnosis, procedure and condition-specific clinical experience, network status, education, and risk-adjusted outcome metrics such as complications, readmission rates, and length of stay. Why It Matters
“Physician performance has a material impact on the quality, experience, and cost of healthcare,” said Eric Wilson, CEO of MD Insider. “We’re excited to join the Accolade team and see the power of our provider data insight put into the hands of millions of individuals, their families and Accolade nurses.”
Accolade Total Care will be available in early 2020.

Healthcare technology company Accolade is getting back to basics with a service that helps patients with a fundamental healthcare need: picking a doctor. Called Accolade Total Care, the new product was made possible by the acquisition of MD Insider , which operates a machine learning platform with access to data on millions of healthcare providers. It’s an extension of Accolade’s core offering, which helps employees navigate healthcare options. “There’s one healthcare intervention that probably has the most significant impact on satisfaction and costs and outcome. And that’s the moment that you’re picking a doctor,” Accolade CEO Raj Singh said. “This is a complicated process and people want help.”
The company is marrying MD Insider’s data with a staff of nurses who help guide patients in picking a healthcare provider. That team also helps coordinate care for people with more than one provider, such as those managing chronic conditions. The nurse service “takes a lot of the legwork and the challenges away from the consumer,” Singh said. While the technology and data provide the intelligence, it’s the nurses who make sense of it all. The importance of having a knowledgable source handy when picking a provider recently became personal for Singh, who helped a relative through the process following a cancer diagnosis. “I’m an educated healthcare consumer, with access to this capability,” Singh said. “It was still very difficult to make an emotional decision.”
In the end, what drew Accolade to MD Insider was access to data on 13 billion insurance claims and modern systems. “It was hands down the best technology stack we saw in the space,” Singh said. The new service will be available next year. Terms of the acquisition, Accolade’s second in its 12-year history, were not disclosed. Founded in 2012, MD Insider had raised $24 million from investors including Tim Ferriss and Bill Ackman. The Santa Monica, Calif.-based startup was valued at $36 million following a financing round in 2015, according to PitchBook. MD Insider will no longer offer services as an independent company, and the majority of its employees will remain in Santa Monica. Singh took over at Accolade in 2015 alongside Mike Hilton, who is Accolade’s chief product officer. Hilton and Singh co-founded Concur, the expense management tech company that sold to SAP for $8.3 billion. The pair have since grown the Philadelphia company’s tech offerings and set up a second headquarters in Seattle.
