Data Solutions | Third Horizon

Health care pricing is public. Understanding it isn't.

Third Horizon's data solutions are powered by the Starset Analytics Platform, a proprietary health care intelligence data system.

Starset takes the massive pricing files containing contracted rates that insurance companies and hospitals are now required to publish under federal price transparency mandates, and makes them actually usable.

By integrating claims, provider directories, episode grouping logic, and quality data, the platform delivers a unified view of price transparency data by service, payer or market - accessible through AI natural language querying, flat file, API, MCP and embedded advisory for reimbursement intelligence, behavioral health pricing, and network cost analytics.

Three solutions, one data foundation.

Third Horizon's platform solutions leveraging price transparency data scale from single-solution subscriptions to enterprise-wide deployments embedded in advisory engagements. Whether you need validated data to strengthen a negotiation, evidence to support a policy position, or intelligence infrastructure to power your own analytics, we built Starset to meet you where you are.
