Don’t Just Report Stars Performance. OWN It.

Perficient’s Stars Intelligence Solution delivers AI-driven insights that help health plans see Stars risk before ratings are finalized, so teams can act while the outcome is still theirs to optimize.

Star Ratings Are Getting Harder to Predict. Get Ready for 2027.

Stars performance is becoming more volatile, and static dashboards can’t keep up. By the time risk appears, the window to act is gone.

Health plans need a more predictive way to manage performance. One that surfaces measure-level risk earlier, guides targeted intervention, and adapts as CMS rules evolve. With the right intelligence in place, teams can improve member experience, strengthen quality of care, and protect the financial value tied to Stars.

AI-Powered Stars Intelligence Built for Action

Perficient’s Stars Intelligence Solution predicts risk, prioritizes action, and operationalizes improvement before ratings are finalized. It gives teams greater influence over the data, decisions, and interventions that shape Stars performance.

Built on a secure-by-design, zero-trust platform, it enables health plans to strengthen retention, improve member engagement, protect bonus payments, and drive more predictable Stars outcomes.

FROM STARS DATA TO AGENT-DRIVEN ACTION

Stars Intelligence is not another dashboard. It is an AI-native platform that helps health plans manage Stars performance with governed data, CMS-aligned calculations, predictive insights, and agent-driven engagement.

Standardize Stars Data

Unify, govern, map, and prepare Stars data across sources with a FHIR-native data foundation. 

Compute CMS-Aligned Measures

Apply audited, versioned measure logic through a calculation engine aligned to CMS requirements. 

Model Measure-Level Risk

Forecast Stars performance and identify the drivers behind measure-level risk with predictive and prescriptive models. 

Orchestrate Agent-Driven Action

Drive member engagement and improve adherence to support stronger Stars outcomes with cross-functional workflows.

KEEP CONTROL OF YOUR STARS DATA

Many Stars solutions require data to move outside your environment. Stars Intelligence takes a different approach. Designed to integrate with the technology platforms you already trust, it helps keep your data, models, and calculations within your control. Built with HIPAA-aligned safeguards and support for audit readiness, it provides actionable intelligence while minimizing data movement and administrative burden.

Star Ratings Are a Financial Lever, Not a Quality Score

Medicare Advantage plans that treat Star Ratings as a compliance score are missing what Stars really controls: revenue, rebate funding, benefit design, and competitive position.

Healthcare organizations are adopting AI quickly, but without intentional design, the tools meant to improve care could reinforce the same access gaps they aim to solve.

Frequently Asked Questions

Perficient’s Stars Intelligence Solution is an AI-native Star Ratings performance management offering for Medicare Advantage and Prescription Drug organizations. It brings together FHIR-native data, predictive models, and AI-guided workflows to help plans identify risk, prioritize interventions, and act before ratings are finalized. Leaders can focus investments on the measures most likely to improve performance, strengthen CAHPS and member experience, and protect bonus revenue.

Traditional Stars reporting shows what has already happened. Stars Intelligence helps health plans see what is likely to happen next. The solution forecasts ratings, identifies measure-level risk, simulates interventions, and uses agent-driven workflows to move insights into action. Instead of relying on broad campaigns or delayed third-party dashboards, quality teams can focus their resources where they are most likely to improve performance.

Stars performance is becoming harder to predict, yet many care teams still rely on reactive, backward-looking models. Measure changes, evolving CAHPS weighting, and increased performance volatility can put Quality Bonus Payments at risk before teams have time to respond. At the same time, many quality programs still depend on siloed processes, including outreach lists, vendor-managed initiatives, static dashboards, and manual workflows. Stars Intelligence brings data, intelligence, and action together in one platform, helping health plans understand what’s driving performance, identify emerging risks, and focus on the interventions that can have the greatest impact.

Perficient’s Stars Intelligence Solution is designed to operate within the health plan’s technology environment, including platforms such as Databricks, Google Cloud, Snowflake, and AWS. Built on a secure-by-design, zero-trust platform, it keeps data, models, and calculations within the organization’s environment, to secure access to sensitive data.
