Optum will also move 400 employees from the Boston suburbs to its new office, a 125,000-square-foot building in the city’s Fenway neighborhood.
“We’re experiencing very rapid growth in the Boston area,” said Optum spokesman Matt Stearns, according to the report. “It makes sense for us to bring together a large number of our people into a collaborative hub in an up-and-coming neighborhood to drive innovation and technical [partnerships].”
In 2014, the state of Massachusetts hired Optum to help fix its struggling healthcare marketplace.
