hCentive, Inc. is a software company based in Reston, Virginia, known for developing cloud-based products for health insurers and state agencies involved with health insurance marketplaces.[2][3]
As of December 31, 2018, hCentive, Inc. was listed among UnitedHealth Group’s subsidiaries, indicating that the company had been integrated into UHG’s Optum business by that time.[4]
History
hCentive was founded in 2009 by Sanjay Singh, Manoj Agarwala and Tarun Upaday. The company expanded alongside the rollout of the Affordable Care Act.[5][6][7]
In 2013, media reported that approximately 125 employees worked at the corporate headquarters, with additional staff at the Noida R&D center.[1][8]
In 2022, Hcentive Technology India Pvt Ltd was amalgamated into Optum Global Solutions Pvt Ltd, alongside other Optum entities, under an NCLT Hyderabad order.[9]
Products and services

For private markets, the company offered WebInsure Private Exchange and WebInsure Exchange Manager for integration between plans, third-party administrators and related parties.[6]
In June 2014, the Massachusetts Health Connector selected Optum as systems integrator to implement an off-the-shelf exchange platform, customizing software from hCentive, with the goal of restoring functionality for the November 2014 open enrollment period.[11]
