When new members are enrolled in health plans, it would be irrational to assume they are all in perfect health and haven’t been under the care of one or many physicians. Yet, too often health plans feel their only avenue to making substantive impact on health and outcomes can only start once they begin to pay claims and build a medical/clinical history. This wait and see approach can result in higher costs over time, increased care complications, and poorer member quality of life. Even without physically examining a patient or having access to any previous diagnostic testing results, there is a treasure-trove of external data points that, when merged with analytics, can pinpoint those members that need contact rather than waiting. Health plans must embrace these data points to impact member health at the point of enrollment and even continuing throughout the life of coverage.

This webinar will explore & clarify new techniques and disciplines a plan can leverage to engage members in a personalized approach, surface member insight that can enforce and facilitate successful provider interaction, and contribute toward new care payment models being successful in maximizing the value of care. The use of social and economic factor points can be leveraged for insights into social determinants of health and the combination of “influencers” of health. The webinar will specifically address the importance of identifying combinations of these factor points to assess risk for members with and without claims when statistically validated to be directly correlated to specific health outcomes. Additionally, converting health attributes into an actionable health risk score at the individual level will be illustrated.
