Unmatched managed care
experience & expertise
Strategy is only part of the equation
We help healthcare providers not only build a plan — but make it real. Unlock brings together managed care strategy, contract negotiation expertise, data strategy, change management, and strategic communication support in one connected team.
We solve for the real-world complexity most firms avoid
- We’ve led thousands of provider-payor negotiations
Across 49 states. In stable markets and volatile ones. For organizations under fire and those preparing to grow. For big organizations and small. Our programs work. - We connect payor strategy to enterprise outcomes
Financial performance, access, public reputation, leadership priorities — we consider the full picture, not just the contract. - We help manage reputational risk
When negotiations go public, we help you lead with clarity. We support media, board, and internal communications so your message stays consistent and trusted. - We work across silos
Legal, revenue cycle, strategy, and clinical teams all have a stake. We help align them around shared priorities. - We build capacity inside your organization
Our goal isn’t to stay forever. It’s to strengthen your team’s ability to move forward with confidence.

FAQs about working with Unlock
Are you a consulting firm or an extension of our team?
Both. We bring the outside perspective of a strategy firm and the inside access of a partner who rolls up their sleeves.
Do you support short-term projects or long-term engagements?
We do both. Some clients call us in for a single critical negotiation. Others bring us in to support enterprise-wide transformation. Others want partial- or full-outsourcing. We don’t push clients into any engagement model — we are here to help with what they need.
How do you work with in-house teams?
We integrate. From the first meeting, we’re aligned with your leadership, support your staff, and deliver outcomes collaboratively.
What makes you different from traditional consultants?
We don’t stop at recommendations. We stay in the work — with you — until the strategy is implemented, the message is delivered, and the result is real.
