Working Smarter with the CAQH Index: Introducing Tools that Help You Move from Insight to Action

For more than a decade, the CAQH Index has been a trusted resource for leaders across healthcare. Every year, thousands of people download the report to track progress, identify opportunities to reduce waste, and guide investments that improve administrative efficiency.

This year, we introduced something new: Index Pro. A new digital experience with a set of interactive tools that make the Index easier to explore and more valuable for the work you do every day.

As with any new release, longtime readers have some questions about this year’s Index and how the new tools fit into their workflow. The Executive Report is still available at no cost and continues to provide the high‑level national key findings you rely on. Index Pro builds on that foundation and gives teams the flexibility to answer deeper and more specific questions in minutes.

Here is what Index Pro offers and why it matters.

Index Pro includes four core tools: An interactive chartbook, a customizable ROI calculator, LLM-powered “Ask the Index” exploration so you can ask deeper questions about the data, and a one-hour advisory session with experts to help your team use the data to strategize effectively.

More Detail When You Need It

The Executive Report summarizes national trends. The dynamic chartbook lets you engage with the data at a granular level. As healthcare accelerates toward digital operations and real-time analytics, stakeholders need more than static reporting. They need tools that allow them to quickly analyze the data most relevant to their organization. They need faster answers, customizable views, and the ability to explore the data most relevant to their organization. Index Pro chartbook was created in direct response to that need.

Interactive Views that Reduce Manual Work

Teams often download the PDF, re‑create charts, and combine the data with internal reporting. Index Pro eliminates much of that manual effort. The ROI calculator also helps quantify potential savings in minutes, giving teams the ability to model improvements without manual calculations.

A Clearer Path from Data to Decisions

Healthcare leaders use the Index to strengthen administrative operations, evaluate policies and regulations, and plan investments that deliver value for patients, providers, and health plans. Index Pro is designed to make that process easier. The Index provides a national snapshot. Index Pro builds on that foundation with interactive tools that turn the data into tailored insights for strategy, resource planning, and operational decision making.
