Excited to formally announce Collective Health's expansive AI partnership with Google Cloud for our core AI infrastructure and development frameworks. After evaluating all of the major AI and foundational model companies out there, it was clear that Google Cloud was the right partner for us at Collective Health given their breadth of AI development tools, level of foundational model investment, and focus on user privacy and safety. Thank you Aashima Gupta, Amin Vahdat, Anas Osman, Hamidou Dia, Jeff Dean, and Sundar Pichai for your partnership and support of our AI efforts at Collective Health. Here's to transforming America's health insurance and health benefits industries together by harnessing the near-limitless power of Google Cloud's generative AI stack. https://lnkd.in/gJXGbeJB

Insurtech MGA focused on D&O and EPL (AllDigital) is quietly pulling back from California tech company risk. If your tech company has fewer than 250 employees, there’s a good chance AllDigital is on your insurance program. And if you're in California, nonrenewal letters are already going out. Everyone heard when State Farm pulled out of wildfire coverage, but this pullback came without headlines. And it's a signal: • Moves like this typically follow insurmountable losses. • Tech companies are facing D&O and EPL losses - they are real. The most clarity I found: • Nonrenewal letters sent to tech company founders and CFOs. • Announcements of the partnership (as recent as November 2024) disappearing from AllDigital's website. • Article behind a paywall. Big Question - What brokers and tech firms have overly concentrated reliance? Read more here: • What’s actually happening? • Why it matters? • What brokers should be doing now? https://lnkd.in/gshG_FeW Need help, have questions - DM me. #techinsurance #insurtech #fintech #DandO #EPL

"The companies who will win aren't the ones using AI to replace humans, but those using AI to make better human decisions about healthcare spending." AI gives us remarkable abilities to predict costs and identify patterns across millions of claims, but it can't replace human judgment. The question isn't whether to use AI in benefits management, it's how to use it as a decision support tool rather than a cost-cutting shortcut. What's your experience? Has AI helped your organization make better benefits decisions? Reach out to us on LinkedIn to learn more. https://lnkd.in/gYKyBSty #BenefitsStrategy #HealthcareDecisions #AIApplications
