Yuzu is a tech-enabled, vertically integrated Third Party Administrator (TPA) powering innovative health plans centered on care navigation, capitated primary care, and real-time payments. Unlike traditional TPAs, we partner closely with plan designers who serve as care navigators, contract negotiators, and sales teams for the uniquely tailored plans they create.
We currently support thousands of employees and differentiate ourselves by bringing new models of healthcare delivery to life — enabling novel ways to access and pay for care through modern, flexible health plan design.
Our mission is simple: make it easy for any business to build and manage a custom health plan. We do this by efficiently processing claims, ensuring regulatory compliance, and building technology that enables custom payment flows and seamless collaboration across stakeholders. Equally important, we provide our members with compassionate, high-quality support to guide them through every step of their healthcare journey.
As we continue to grow, we’re excited to welcome another talented member of the Claims team to help us maintain our standard of exceptional service and innovation.
