Establishes Press Ganey “Stars Center of Excellence” to Set the Standard for Member Experience, Stars Management and Analytics

Press Ganey, the leading provider of experience measurement, data analytics, and insights for health systems and health plans, today announced the acquisition of Hyperlift Logic, a pioneer in Stars performance analytics. This move marks the launch of Press Ganey’s Stars Center of Excellence—a new initiative that combines the strengths of Hyperlift’s advanced analytics with Press Ganey’s member experience data, expertise, and AI-powered tools.

Over 30 million Americans are enrolled in Medicare Advantage, with millions more becoming eligible annually. Star Ratings, which evaluate member experience and care outcomes, directly influence billions in incentives. This growth presents a major opportunity for health plans to enhance member experience and achieve higher Star Ratings.

Empowering Health Plans with Predictive, Actionable Insights

By combining Hyperlift’s predictive modeling with Press Ganey’s experience insights, the Stars Center of Excellence provides a data-driven playbook to improve Stars outcomes. Health plans can analyze performance across Stars, CAHPS, HEDIS, HOS, and pharmacy data, identifying risks and turning insights into action. For example, plan leaders can proactively flag members overdue for preventive screenings, such as mammograms, and intervene before outcomes are impacted.

The Stars Center of Excellence enables health plans to deliver personalized, proactive care by combining Press Ganey’s scale, healthcare expertise, and AI-driven innovation. It helps health plans optimize member engagement, improve care outcomes, and navigate evolving regulatory demands. For members, it means a more tailored and proactive experience, ensuring their needs are met with greater precision and care.

Unmatched Expertise Meets Advanced Analytics

“The complexity of Medicare Advantage Star Ratings requires health plans to be proactive, precise, and deeply attuned to member needs,” said Patrick T. Ryan, Chairman and CEO of Press Ganey Forsta. “By bringing together the strengths of Press Ganey and Hyperlift, we are equipping health plans with real-time insights, predictive analytics, and strategic guidance to help them improve member experience and reach higher Stars performance.”

“Hyperlift has a proven track record of helping health plans maximize Stars performance and quality outcomes through advanced data science,” said Mick Twomey, CEO of Hyperlift Logic. “Press Ganey has scale and unmatched member experience insights—and together, we will enable health plans to take more precise, impactful action across every aspect of Stars performance.”

Press Ganey partners with three-quarters of U.S. health plans, including all current 5-star plans, and this acquisition strengthens its commitment to driving meaningful improvement in the industry. For more information, visit this page on PressGaney.com.
