Change is constant in today’s health insurance environment from responding to healthcare reform and increasing costs, to rethinking the core business and making better use of IT. Healthcare Payors need to get ahead of change by optimizing every aspect of the business, whether it is exploring new business models to remain viable or diversifying with new products and services for emerging customer segments. In addition, health plans are focused on finding better ways to manage administrative processes that significantly reduce costs and help eliminate waste, fraud and abuse. Meeting these demands means using knowledge in new ways to drive more effective, efficient and affordable healthcare with analytics and systems. The industry is focused on the following: Customer Centricity - Fierce competition and evolving markets have paved the way for customer-centric business models, with an increased demand for personalized products and services as well as increased product and pricing transparency. Going patient-centric will require greater IT integration to enable seamless communication and interaction between patients and providers. Regulatory compliance – HIPAA 5010, ICD-10 and the Meaningful Use mandate will create enterprise-wide impact to people, processes and technology. With solutions and strategies that accelerate the transition, enterprises can make their journey smoother, while also reducing risk, cost and effort. IT Solutions that are Payor Aligned – The emergence of digital health is opening new doors from electronic medical records to connected health approaches and hospital-at-home programs.
