Consulting leader with deep healthcare payer expertise helps clients across a range of industries transform and innovate through data-driven, AI-powered solutions

CHICAGO: #AI--AArete, a leading global management and technology consulting firm, was recently named among Forbes’ World’s Best Management Consulting Firms 2026. The firm was recognized for its experience and expertise in the categories of Digital Transformation, Data Analytics & Big Data and Healthcare & Life Sciences.

This is AArete’s fifth consecutive year on the list, which is based on global surveys of clients and leaders at other consulting firms. The most frequently recommended firms earn a place in the rankings, reflecting their expertise, global relevance and consistent performance.

The recognition follows AArete’s inclusion in Business Insider’s America’s Top Management Consulting Firms for 2026, based on feedback from more than 25,000 professionals who have direct experience working with consulting firms. Both honors underscore the firm’s track record of pairing deep operational expertise with AI-powered solutions including Doczy.ai™ and Payment Intelligence® to drive profitability improvement and digital transformation for clients across a range of industries. AArete’s signature expertise is in the healthcare payer segment, where the firm partners with U.S. health plans across Medicaid, Medicare, ACA Marketplace and commercial lines to manage total cost of care and expand affordability while protecting quality of care and the member experience.

“AArete’s continued recognition reflects the trust our clients have placed in the firm,” said AArete CEO Pam Shipley. “It is an honor to work with a globally recognized team that has built its reputation on delivering results for clients and continues to do so year after year.”

Forbes developed the World’s Best Management Consulting Firms list in partnership with the research company Statista, surveying clients and senior consulting executives across 13 industries and 15 functional areas.
