The easiest way for payers to connect to providers

Premera's mission is to improve our customers' lives by making health care work better, and we're doing this together with Vim. Vim is meeting patients where they are — online and in the doctor’s office — and guiding informed decisions that promote affordable, convenient, high-quality care. After less than 12 months of working with Vim, we saw statistically significant evidence that our members are seeing high value providers at higher rates than before.

Vim connects our providers to direct scheduling opportunities through key payers, and is also enhancing our website scheduling flows to improve patient access and experience while streamlining practice operations.

At Premera we are transforming to make it simple and easy to get high-quality healthcare. Simply put, we make our customer and their healthcare needs the center of all we do. Vim is a strategic partner whose mission, technology and team are fully aligned with that focus on the customer and our purpose of making healthcare work better.

Vim allows us to optimize the patient experience across our diverse network. Through Vim’s capabilities, we can impact patient-provider matching, improve our patients’ ability to connect with their provider, and ultimately lower the cost of care across our network.

With Vim, we can make sure our patients get referred to our “A” team of specialists and that they have the information they need to schedule their visit.

Vim’s strategy to provide “smart links” between health plans, primary care providers, patients, and the downstream specialists and services they need is both well-conceived and timely for efforts to better coordinate care.
