SAS Announces AI Models and Solutions For Health Care Industry, Payer Organizations
SAS has announced a new solution – SAS Health Cost of Care Analytics – targeted to health care payers and providers to support effective decision making about quality and cost of care. Available in July 2025, SAS Health Cost of Care Analytics taps into health claims data and enables health care organizations to construct and analyze claims as episodes of care by stitching together codes and patterns all along a 'care journey' from detection to treatment to care management. The health care analytics solution built on the data and AI platform SAS Viya can enable more cost-effective treatment pathways, reduce unwarranted admissions, decrease the length of hospital stays and more. SAS will introduce SAS Health Cost of Care Analytics and other data and analytic solutions for health care payers and the industry at AHIP 2025 in Las Vegas. Per Gartner, 'Payers increasingly need sophisticated data and analytics to achieve outcomes such as identifying rising risk populations, improving quality measure performance, managing the total cost of care and personalizing experiences.' SAS Health Cost of Care Analytics supports the industry with unique features that include: Flexible definitions for episodes of care. Users can analyze claims as episodes of care using transparent clinical definitions of their choice and detect associations for a holistic patient view.

The solution categorizes services and their care costs as being value-added or potentially avoidable. Additionally, expected and risk-adjusted costs are automatically calculated and can then be used as quality/efficiency measures or payment metrics. Other quality metrics, such as length of stay, are also captured. The solution categorizes services and their care costs as being value-added or potentially avoidable.

Analytic insights with simplified data management. The product supports data validation and simplified data ingestion into the SAS Health common data model to create data repositories.

'Going far beyond traditional claims grouping, SAS Health Cost of Care Analytics generates valuable insights to identify variations and opportunities for improvement when assessing financial risk, all while understanding members in more detail.'

Complementing its health care solutions portfolio, SAS' AI models are built from decades of expertise in applying scalable and trustworthy AI to real-world use cases and are designed to tackle business challenges with precision and efficiency.

Aramex launches AI-powered campaign to combat scam messages
With phishing and impersonation scams on the rise, Aramex has launched an AI-generated awareness campaign to help customers distinguish legitimate brand communications from scam ones. Rolled out on the company's social media platforms, the campaign uses a deliberately surreal, AI-style video to spotlight the growing issue of scam messages targeting Aramex customers across key markets, including the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Jordan. The Aramex film starts with a conventional brand introduction before glitching into AI-generated visuals: delivery drones, people with box or animal heads, and surreal scenes that blur fiction and reality. The narrator shares a warning, 'Not everything you see in the digital world is real,' and then cautions viewers about scammers pretending to be Aramex, urging them to verify official communications and avoid acting on suspicious messages. The tone of the Aramex video – equal parts cautionary and absurd – intentionally mirrors the confusing nature of scam content online. The campaign draws from the insight that impersonation scams are not only growing in number but also evolving in sophistication. According to Help AG's 2024 State of the Market report, phishing and impersonation attempts accounted for 90 per cent of all cybersecurity incidents last year – pointing to a broader shift in how fraudsters exploit brand trust to deceive consumers. Mike Rich, Group CMO at Aramex, explained: 'With scams targeting our industry growing in volume and sophistication, traditional awareness methods simply weren't cutting through the noise. We adopted AI for the creatives in a classic case of fighting fire with fire. While the campaign protects Aramex customers, it's also a broader public service initiative relevant across all industries.' With scammers increasingly turning to AI tools to generate fake emails, cloned websites and deepfake content, Aramex chose to mirror this approach in a way that exposes its dangers. Shahir Sirry, Global Creative Director at Aramex, added: 'Scammers are using artificial tactics to deceive people, so we leaned into artificial visuals to highlight just how unnatural and misleading these tactics are. The irony is intentional – and hopefully impactful.' The initiative promotes three core safety measures: verifying senders through official Aramex channels, never paying through unofficial links, and maintaining vigilance across all platforms – including social media. Since its launch, the campaign has coincided with a 28% increase in downloads of the Aramex mobile app, which the company positions as the most secure platform for tracking deliveries and making payments. The video is being supported by a wider digital campaign rollout and is available to watch across Aramex's official YouTube, LinkedIn, Instagram, X and Facebook channels.
