Evidence-based insights shaping the future of healthcare
At Carelon, we believe that research, insights, and data are the essential foundation for a better healthcare system. That’s why we work to advance evidence-based care, because better-informed clinical practice and standards of care will strengthen health services and improve lives and communities.
Carelon is uniquely positioned to be a research leader. Our ability to link data using deterministic matching enables our teams to design, conduct, and analyze complex data in ways that others cannot. This allows us to identify the right questions to ask, design cutting-edge studies to provide comprehensive answers, and deliver meaningful results necessary to help improve health outcomes and inform impactful decisions across the healthcare continuum — from treatment development to care delivery and policy.
With our unparalleled data, relationships, and decades of experience as a leader in healthcare research, we provide unique insights on today’s top health issues and help to identify the healthcare trends of tomorrow.

Better healthcare is driven by better research capabilities
At Carelon, we curate one of the largest healthcare databases in the country, with multiple integrated data sets and sources that can provide a more complete picture of patient care. This deep well of data powers our ability to generate the evidence needed to deliver better value and outcomes.
And our expertise is unrivaled. Our multidisciplinary team of researchers has years of experience working with our data and designing studies shaping the future of healthcare.
Health economics and outcomes research
Identify the real-world value of biomedical products and leverage those insights to advance actionable information for stakeholders.
Safety and epidemiology research
Uncover vital evidence on the use, safety, and efficacy of biomedical products and devices in large, real-world patient populations.
Clinical research
Design and execute clinical trials from start-up to close-out to drive needed therapies and meaningful outcomes.
Patient-centered research
Engage the voices of patients in research to make therapies and programs more real world ready and relevant.
When expertise meets collaboration, the possibilities are limitless
Our large data sets and deep healthcare expertise improve our ability to have a robust picture of health — but we know the future of healthcare is bigger than us. That’s why we work with life science companies, government agencies, academia, and other key healthcare stakeholders to uncover meaningful insights that have the power to improve medications, devices, and treatment programs.
