Congrats on the launch! This seems like a great beachhead / GTM strategy for an insurer to get off the ground.

Curious about the footnotes you mentioned: "Thirty-five cents of every dollar spent goes to clinical waste, unnecessary services, administrative bloat, or fraud. (We could give footnotes, but doubt anyone needs convincing.)" Is there any one good source, or a few good sources, on this breakdown?

New comment by jedgardyson in "Ask HN: Strategies for managing the proliferation of office SaaS products?"

jedgardyson — Tue, 08 Feb 2022 21:44:41 +0000

Some key rules I've found are to avoid the challenges you're describing are to evaluate quality (use the software + check their docs + talk to customers) and portability (actually make sure the exports work the way you need them to) before considering using or recommending any new piece of saas

Working on a search/review/ratings engine (https://tooltip.com), that currently operates as a consulting service, because I've found that parsing through all the muck is a waste of human time and anxiety (also, ppl often end up on the WRONG solution because they didn't have enough time or the right resources to search)

Edit: More immediate practical strategies are to use a spreadsheet that aggregates up from the dept level to the company level to keep track of all users/accounts, or buy a piece of SAAS to manage dedicated procurement / billing (there are a few alternatives out there on this front nowadays)

Anything that was missed, entirely my fault

I'll add it in for the next pass

Edit: think actually y'all are in a different report category with a different comparable set of companies, but added it to the list for when that time comes
