| Strategies for Stemming Opioid Misuse in 2019: Analytics and Emerging Technologies - Deloitte Research | ||
|
The Opioid crisis in the
United States has had a widespread impact on all aspects of society. The
epidemic extends across multiple delivery points in the health care
ecosystem, with no single entity capable of implementing a complete
solution. While a holistic approach involving the entire ecosystem is
likely required, health plans and pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) have
an opportunity to curb opioid misuse among their members and in their
communities—by leveraging data and technology to improve prevention and
treatment. To help identify some potential strategies, the Deloitte Center for Health Solutions interviewed clinical, pharmacy, data analytics, and policy leaders from health plans and PBMs across the country. Deloitte found that a growing number of health plans and PBMs are taking a data-driven, evidence-based approach to help change patient and physician behavior. Deloitte expects emerging technologies to play an increasing role in supporting these endeavors in the battle against the opioid epidemic. This session examines novel payer analytic techniques ranging from retrospective data analysis to predictive modeling, that can help health plans and PBMs leverage their data to identify people at high risk for opioid misuse. The role of emerging technologies including virtual care, digital therapeutics, remote patient monitoring, AI and more are explored. Opportunities, challenges, barrier and limitations with initiatives to improve and streamline access to SDOH and other additional data sources are addressed. Initiatives to improve evidence based standards, quality metrics, access to medication assisted treatments, and value based care payment models are discussed. Please join us on Wednesday, November 14, 2018, at 1 PM Eastern as Deloitte's Elizabeth Lapetina presents Deloitte research findings, insights and perspectives on addressing the Opioid crisis going forward in the health plan and PBM arena.
