Rovicare & OPEN MINDS Partner To Reduce Total Cost Of Care & Improve Outcomes
TEMPE, AZ. (May 2, 2026) — When ranking providers’ top priorities for improvement through artificial intelligence (AI) and innovation, reducing total cost of the care was at the top of the list. This was followed by reducing administrative costs/burden, reducing readmissions, and improving Star Ratings and quality.
The United States is at a point where 10% of consumers drive 70% of health care spend. Care models are reactive instead of proactive. There is limited visibility and little coordination which can lead to delayed and costly outcomes. Health care teams now report that 80% of their time is spent on administrative work instead of consumer care. Top all of this off with regulatory pressures, workforce burnout, and the needs of value-based contracting; it is no wonder providers are looking for the best ways to improve outcomes while bringing unneeded costs down.
Rovicare, a leader in care management software, and OPEN MINDS, a leader in market intelligence and industry insights, have partnered to address the cost of care issue while supporting outcomes.
Rovicare’s Initiative: Transforming the Patient Care Continuum
Rovicare was founded to simply care management. Pankaj (PJ) Likhmania, Co-Founder & CEO of Rovicare, experienced the challenges and inefficiencies firsthand in discharge management and transition of care.
The Rovicare platform streamlines communication across hospitals, behavioral health providers, senior care communities, and post-acute partners by reducing administrative delays and improving coordination at every transition point. By embedding intelligent workflows and enabling closed-loop visibility, organizations can proactively manage high-risk populations, ensure timely follow-up care, and drive measurable improvements in both clinical and financial performance.
These capabilities support:
- Improved patient outcomes through coordinated, timely care transitions
- Reduced readmissions by closing gaps in post-discharge follow-up
- Increased quality measure performance through better visibility and accountability
- Lower total cost of care by eliminating inefficiencies and avoidable utilization
By partnering with the OPEN MINDS community of providers, health plans, government, and more, Rovicare grows based on the direct challenges this community faces now and the challenges of tomorrow. Care coordination doesn’t need to be complicated. Health care organizations can see a return of investment of 90% or more with the right software and processes in place. The time to simplify is now.
“Expanding our work with OPEN MINDS strengthens our mission to help healthcare organizations streamline care transitions, improve outcomes, and reduce the total cost of care for complex populations,” said PJ Likhmania, CEO of Rovicare.
“OPEN MINDS is honored to be a continued partner with Rovicare as we both share the same philosophy. Better care for all people served”, said Monica E. Oss, CEO of OPEN MINDS. “We look forward to sharing more of Rovicare’s knowledge in whole person care and the technology used to support it.“
Rovicare will join OPEN MINDS and be a sponsor at this year’s Strategy & Innovation Institute, June 9-11, 2026 in New Orleans, Louisiana. This event is designed to keep organizations serving complex consumers at the forefront of a rapidly evolving landscape. It equips leaders with forward-looking insights on emerging issues, shifting regulatory requirements, and the scalable solutions needed to stay competitive.
