Pilot cohort

Apply to our Pilot Cohort

A fixed cohort, a fixed term, and published selection criteria. We read every application ourselves and respond within one business day, including when the answer is no.

What we look for, published.

We keep the cohort small because we do the work ourselves. These are the actual tests, not a description of an ideal customer. If you read this and think one of them is a problem, say so in the form and let us decide together rather than self-selecting out.

  • You own a quality or analytics outcome

    Not necessarily the budget, but the result. Pilots work when the person in the room is the one who will be asked about the number later.

  • You can name the measure that worries you

    One specific measure, or one specific reconciliation you cannot settle. A pilot scoped as show us everything has no finish line, and a pilot without a finish line helps nobody.

  • You have data we can actually reach

    For ClearStarsQI, published CMS files are enough and you need nothing from IT. For the member-level products, someone has to be able to approve an extract inside the term.

  • You will tell us when we are wrong

    The whole point of a glass box is that you can inspect it. We would rather hear that a projection missed than find out from a renewal conversation.

  • You can give it an hour a week

    Less than that and a pilot becomes a demo. More than that and we have scoped it wrong.

  • There is a decision at the end

    Not a commitment to buy. A commitment to decide, so the work resolves instead of drifting into next year.

Which product

Start where the legal path is shortest.

The fastest pilot is almost always the one that needs no protected health information, because the technical work is measured in days and the agreement work is measured in weeks. If you are not sure, choose not sure. Picking correctly is our job.

No PHI, no BAA required

Needs a business associate agreement

ClearStarsQI+

Ask your quality data a question in plain English and get a precise, sourced answer, down to the claim event that moved a member in or out of a measure. It shows its work and it does not invent your numbers.

Open Beta signups, needs a business associate agreement

ClearStarsLM

Connect quality performance to clinical outcomes and value-based care results, so improvement work is prioritized by patient impact rather than by checkbox.

Tell us what you are trying to move.

The last field is the one we read first. One specific measure, rate, or reconciliation you cannot settle is more useful than a description of your organization.

After you apply

Four steps, and a real decision at the end.

1. We read it ourselves
Not a queue and not an assistant. You get an answer from someone who can actually scope the work, within one business day.
2. A short call to test the fit
We tell you which product fits and, more usefully, when none of them do. Turning down a poor fit early is cheaper for both of us than discovering it in week four.
3. A written scope before anything starts
What we will look at, what we will hand back, and what would make it a failure. Agreed in writing so nobody is remembering it differently later.
4. The pilot runs, and it ends
A fixed term with a defined deliverable. It concludes on a date rather than tapering into an open engagement.
