About Health Plus Technologies

Measurably better healthcare analytics.

Under Gary Nissen’s leadership, the Health Plus Technologies team builds solutions for some of the biggest analytic gaps in U.S. health care today.

Who we are

Where analytics, technology and strategy meet.

Health Plus Technologies (HPT) is a Beavercreek, Ohio healthcare analytics firm serving health insurers and the software companies that serve them.

We’re passionate about making sure our customers in health insurance know how to identify the best metrics — and close the gaps between analysts, technologists and business leadership that create vulnerability across the organization.

Let us help you understand how improving your analytics will measurably improve the health of your organization.

Leadership

An innovator and agent of change in health care analytics.

Gary Nissen’s technical know-how and experience make him an expert in analytic methods and systems for the health insurance industry — but it’s his continual effort to study contract inequities and pricing manipulation in health care that places him on the cutting edge of reform.

As President of Health Plus Technologies, Nissen has provided strategic advice to health insurers and to the software companies that serve them. He led development of a market-leading HEDIS reporting system and was selected to lead strategy and design for the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association’s analytic data warehouse.

For payers, his solutions drive measurable improvements in reimbursement methodologies — which help clients drive measurable improvements in contract negotiations.

By demonstrating unique capabilities, along with a recommendation from DST Health Solutions, Nissen and HPT were awarded ongoing development responsibilities for the Johns Hopkins ACG System, a world-leading risk adjustment and predictive modeling system.

A rare perspective

Nissen’s years in the health insurance industry — first in software development for operational purposes, later in strategic analytics — give him a unique view of how software development and properly derived analytics should combine to drive business strategy.

Alongside his technical skills, his exposure to great minds and thought leaders in the health insurance world make him a leading, yet cost-effective, problem solver. He has written extensively about the insurance industry, presented at workshops and conferences on predictive modeling systems, and was referenced by data warehouse guru Ralph Kimball in his best seller, The Data Warehouse ETL Toolkit.
