A Network of Excellence that gets results
Lantern’s network delivers significantly better outcomes than the national average. See how our network defines excellence.
Lantern’s Network of Excellence is the better way to connect employees with complex care.
Finding the right surgeon is about more than ratings and reviews. Lantern’s dedicated team individually vets specialists in our network to ensure they’re among the top in their field. Here’s what that looks like:
- Licensed and board-certified specialists
- Fellowship-trained specialists
- Surgeons who perform a high volume of the specific procedures members need
- Surgeons with comprehensive pre- and post-surgery optimization protocols
The result is an elite network of providers with a less than 1% complication rate.1
Quality Close to Home
Providers in Lantern’s network aren’t concentrated in one facility, or in one place, so we’re different from the traditional Centers of Excellence model. Lantern providers are located across the country, making it possible for members to get the best care closer to home.1
