V?lenz Ranks No. 2065 on Inc. 5000 List of Fastest-Growing Private Companies

Inc. magazine today announced that V?lenztm ranks No. 2065 on the annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of America's fastest-growing private companies. The Inc. 5000 list represents a unique look at America's most successful independent small businesses. Over the years it has included such leading-edge organizations as Microsoft, Vizio, Intuit, Oracle, Zappos.com and many others.

"We are honored to be recognized as one of the fastest-growing companies in America, and it reinforces what our clients already know ? that controlling health plan costs, serving the plan member and helping the employer group are all connected," said Rob Gelb, Chief Executive Officer at Valenz. "Our rapid growth is a function of everything we do to control costs, deliver quality, and create new paths of opportunity for employers, TPAs, and brokers to improve plan design, reduce plan spend, and enhance member lives."

Moving forward, the company is poised for future growth. As the innovators behind an ecosystem that combines health data analytics with healthcare service delivery across the entire lifecycle of every claim, Valenz is laser-focused on changing the trajectory of healthcare costs ? which they call lowering the Claim Cost Arc? ? for the self-insured industry. Data and information flow through the Valenz ecosystem from the company's core products, clients, platform partners and industry sources, and in doing so, it fuels ever-expanding analytic and predictive capabilities. That data-driven decision enablement, coupled with member- and client-centric service delivery, creates continuous value for every individual and organization within the ecosystem.

"If you are excited about what Valenz has accomplished for your business in the three years since we first envisioned our ecosystem, you will be very pleased with what the future holds," said Gelb. "By engaging early and often for smarter, better, faster healthcare, we are continuously creating new opportunities for self-insurers to target the small percentage of claims that drive their majority of health plan costs."

"From health and software to media and hospitality, the 2020 list proves that no matter the sector, incredible growth is based on the foundations of tenacity and opportunism," said Inc. editor-in-chief Scott Omelianuk. Together, the companies in the 2020 Inc. 5000 achieved three-year average growth of more than 500 percent and a median rate of 165 percent, with aggregate revenue accounting for more than 1 million jobs in the same time frame.
