Description
Many organizations are challenged with meeting the increasingly complex healthcare needs of their covered population while reducing costs. In order to implement a whole-person approach to healthcare that can impact outcomes and cost, it’s critical that employees have the ability to easily access all programs offered to support their total well-being. Existing and emerging technology can be leveraged to increase engagement and drive employees to take charge of their health. Learn how advanced data analytics coupled with personalized information from wellness programs, biometrics, and multi-platform pricing transparency tools can engage employees in managing their health. Meeting the employee where they are, and putting information on the device of their choice, can enhance engagement and provide meaningful behavior changes that improve care and reduce costs. Otto will also discuss how to incorporate new technology into existing health and benefits programs, as well as how to balance high tech with a “human touch” to provide valuable personalized support for employees.
