HCCI is an independent, non-profit research institute

Founded in 2011, the Health Care Cost Institute is a trusted source of clear information that researchers, policymakers and journalists can rely on to explain what is driving health care spending in the US. We recognize that people are at the heart of health care. The best way to identify how we can develop a better performing, more sustainable system of care is to methodically examine current care trends. As the only non-profit, independent research group with the most comprehensive database of commercially insured individuals, paired with access to Medicaid and Medicare data – HCCI is committed to putting health care claims data to work for the benefit of the people behind the figures.
