C8 Health vs Navina

KLAS comments on Navina are unrated excerpts and they run mixed. A VP says Navina "does a really good job" on risk adjustment but is focused on Medicare, a director says its support "overpromises and underdelivers", and another writes that an EHR vendor "doesn't love the idea of a Chrome extension". Navina names athenahealth, Epic and Veradigm and shows Privia Health and Agilon Health as customers. Its own Phyx Primary Care report claims 40% less chart review time on complex visits and 92% trust in HCC suggestions.

C8 Health sells to a hospital executive trying to reduce clinical variation, mainly in perioperative care. Its JMIR Human Factors paper is a survey of 142 MetroHealth anesthesiology clinicians that measured usability only and lists C8's chief medical officer as co-author. KLAS comments describe Navina billing a per-member monthly fee on an attributed population, a primary care group's purchase that a hospital protocol program does not share.
