WNS serves clients across a diverse set of industries. Within healthcare, WNS serves payers, providers, and life sciences clients. WNS’ payer BPS business was significantly expanded in September 2017, when WNS acquired analytics and care management company HealthHelp for $95m. This privately held, Houston, TX, company was founded in 1999. Since this acquisition, WNS healthcare vertical revenue is approaching or exceeding 15% of total revenue. This acquired entity still operates under its prior brand name (“HealthHelp, a WNS Company”). The combined healthcare payer BPS business under WNS ownership will be referred to below as WNS.

NelsonHall estimates that WNS payer BPS revenue from commercial clients in calendar year 2018 was approximately $45m. The impact of the HealthHelp acquisition was substantial, as NelsonHall estimates that payer BPM revenue over the prior calendar year had totaled only $6m.

  • Provider management
  • Health intelligence and analytics
  • Claims management
  • In terms of clinical specialties, WNS is focused on radiology, cardiology, oncology, pain, spine & orthopedic, sleep Care and specialty drugs.
