This marks the fourth consecutive year for Dell as a Leader for IT outsourcing (ITO) in the healthcare provider industry and the third consecutive year as a leader for IT outsourcing in the payer industry. It was also the second time Dell Services was named a Star Performer in the payer industry report.

The results were published in the 'IT Outsourcing in the Healthcare Provider Industry - Service Provider Landscape with PEAK Matrix™ Assessment 2015'[1]and the 'IT Outsourcing in the Payer Industry - Service Provider Landscape with PEAK Matrix Assessment 2015'[2].

Dell Services maintained its leader position as a healthcare ITO provider based on its continued success signing large-size IT deals with health systems, hospitals, physician practices and diagnostic labs. Further strengthening its leadership position, the report also found that Dell Services is leading the market in terms of revenue and headcount for provider ITO.

Dell Services remained in the leader position in the payer IT industry because of its success with public and private health plans. Dell's partnerships and acquisitions in the healthcare industry continued to make Dell Services stand out, as well as Dell's proprietary solutions that cater to payer value chain areas such as policy administration, claims management and patient/care management. In addition, Dell Services was named a Star Performer because of its market success in 2014 in both private and public health plan space as well as having more than 15 percent revenue growth in the payer IT industry.
