CHICAGO, May 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Aon plc (NYSE: AON), a leading global professional services firm, today announced the launch of the Health Price Transparency Analysis, a new analytics solution that enables U.S. employers to unlock actionable insights from publicly available healthcare pricing data. Aon's Health Price Transparency Analysis supports plan sponsors as they assess the negotiated rates between payers and providers, enabling them to manage rising medical costs, mitigate fiduciary risk and better understand healthcare networks to make more informed decisions.

Built to help plan sponsors understand and utilize the newly available insights into prices amid growing scrutiny around employer health plan oversight, the analysis distills large amounts of complex pricing data into strategic insights, empowering employers and optimizing healthcare spend.

"As employee expectations rise and healthcare costs continue to escalate, Aon's Health Price Transparency Analysis equips employers with the data and analysis needed to make high-impact decisions," said Farheen Dam, head of Health Solutions for North America at Aon. "By turning overwhelming volumes of pricing data into a clear view of market dynamics and provider value, this analysis helps plan sponsors protect their organizations, optimize network performance and manage health plan spend with greater precision."

Powered by Aon's team of more than 300 health analytics and actuarial professionals, the analysis leverages petabytes of public Price Transparency data, expert data processing and Aon's sourced market data covering over 50 million commercial lives. Key features of the Health Price Transparency Analysis include:

Granular benchmarking: Employers can compare negotiated rates across a wide range of broad, narrow, local, and specialty carrier networks representing 5,000 hospitals, over 600 health systems and over 250 payers, including at the procedure code level. Network performance insights: Analyze how networks contract with top-utilized hospitals in major markets. Provider price variance insights: Compare rates across providers for common procedures, informing network steerage and provider network strategy. Fiduciary documentation: Receive a fully documented analysis to support best-in-class third-party administrator selection and mitigate legal exposure.

Aon's Health Price Transparency Analysis supports employers as they navigate a healthcare environment marked by inflationary pressures and growing demand for cost-effective care with timely insights that refresh monthly to ensure recency of data. According to Aon's 2025 U.S. Health Survey, employers expect the cost of healthcare to rise 9.2 percent in 2025, up from 8 percent last year. With this rise, employers face a pressing need to act strategically, using data and targeted tools to mitigate cost drivers over time and minimize fiduciary risk.

Employers can leverage the unprecedented new detail that Price Transparency data provides today to identify rate disparities in both their current and alternative carrier networks. This data, combined with established network evaluation methods, gives plan sponsors a granular level of information that enables them to make more informed decisions about their network and provider options.

The Health Price Transparency Analysis reinforces Aon's commitment to helping clients navigate complexity and build more sustainable, cost-effective and compliant health strategies — rooted in data, guided by expertise and built for long-term success.
