Practice Maturity
- Cognizant serves a large number of payors, providers and health systems primarily in North America, accounting for 91% of its healthcare revenues.

- Its healthcare and life sciences segment grew by 9.5% in 2018, 1.1% more than its overall growth with healthcare accounting for ~84% of segment growth.
