NEW YORK, November 15, 2022 (Newswire.com) - Cedar, an enterprise healthcare engagement platform that improves the end-to-end consumer financial journey, has been awarded a national group purchasing agreement for Patient Engagement with Premier, Inc. Effective September 2022, the new agreement allows Premier members, at their discretion, to take advantage of special pricing and terms pre-negotiated by Premier for Cedar's patient financial engagement solutions Cedar Pre and Cedar Pay.

"The Cedar team is thrilled to join Premier's ecosystem. This relationship will enable us to broaden our reach with health systems and patients across the country, expanding the impact of the consumer-grade financial experience our solutions offer," said Florian Otto, CEO and Co-founder of Cedar.
