One of healthcare’s biggest challenges is the paperwork and complex processes that slow down care and drive up costs. Optum is helping improve claims and payment systems by using data and responsible AI to fix what’s broken and unlock what's possible. Paul Root and his team are building smarter connections between health plans and care providers by integrating electronic health records (EHRs) and claims systems. This helps improve accuracy from the start and makes the experience better for everyone involved. By reducing friction for both health plans and care providers, we’re helping create a more modern, connected healthcare system.

Care. ❤️ Quality. ✅ Reliability. 🤝 At Optum, every prescription is backed by a licensed pharmacist whose expertise ensures each medication is accurate and safe — because it's never just about filling a prescription. Our pharmacists are at the heart of helping people get the medications they need, when and where they need them.

Modernizing healthcare isn’t just about innovation. It’s about making a real impact. At Optum, we’re not just keeping pace with the future of healthcare. We’re helping shape it through the responsible use of AI. We see AI as a tool to support both those who deliver care and those who receive it. It’s not about replacing the human touch —It’s about enhancing it. That means giving clinicians powerful tools so they can spend less time on paperwork and more time doing what they do best: caring for patients. On #WorldAIDay, we’re reflecting on how we’re applying AI in practical, responsible ways to simplify complex processes, reduce administrative burden, and give time back to providers. AI is just one tool helping us make healthcare work better. Learn more about our approach: https://xmrrwallet.com/cmx.poptumin.co/dkl56s #AIinHealthcare #ResponsibleAI

Over half of U.S. adults live with a chronic condition. But that often may be just one part of their health journey. Many people with chronic conditions like diabetes or cancer also face mental health challenges. Yet these are often treated separately, leading to fragmented care, higher costs and poorer health outcomes. Optum is committed to supporting the whole person by finding opportunities to bring together care for both physical and mental health. Explore the connection between chronic conditions and mental health, and the steps we’re taking to make care more connected: https://xmrrwallet.com/cmx.poptum.co/vahym1 #MentalHealth #Health #Healthcare

The pharmacy industry experienced dramatic changes over the past 25 years, and the next decade is poised to bring even more.

In our recent LinkedIn poll, you called out perimenopausal and menopausal care as one of the biggest gaps in caring for women's health. At Optum, we’re helping employers and health plans close the care gap to support women at every stage of life. It’s time to move beyond the basics. Think: access to menopause-informed care, mental health resources, and a culture where open conversations are the norm.

Simplified admin work = More time for patients. ✅   Optum is helping care providers spend more time with patients by using AI to automate administrative tasks.  In a recent pilot with a health system, Optum Integrity One boosted ambulatory coding productivity by 70%. That means less administrative burden and more time doing what matters most: delivering patient care.   👇 Learn how we’re helping providers reclaim their time.

At Optum, we're dedicated to helping people live healthier lives, and our commitment goes far beyond our clinics or offices. We know that underserved communities often face significant barriers to accessing health care. That's why we're so proud of our partnership with One World Surgery (OWS), where we're actively breaking down those barriers together. Our amazing Optum care providers have the chance to volunteer and use their skills to make a real difference — providing surgical, primary, dental and follow-up care year-round. Just ask Dr. Lawrence Shulman, Chief Medical Officer for Optum NY/NJ, who completed his second trip and called it a “privilege” to help those in need of life-changing care. How is your organization supporting volunteer efforts to advance health? We’d love to hear your story. 👇

What happens when the people caring for our mental health need care themselves? At Optum, we believe that better behavioral health starts with supporting the people behind it. That’s why our Behavioral Health Solutions team connects with our providers every quarter, listening, learning, and turning their feedback into real change. Because when we create a stronger support system for our providers, they can focus on what matters most: delivering compassionate, effective care—whether in our clinics or through our wellbeing services. See how we’re transforming behavioral health by starting with those who make it possible. https://xmrrwallet.com/cmx.poptum.co/fath20 #BehavioralHealth #OptumWholeHealth
