Enhance Patient and Member Engagement Guide
How payers and providers can build trust and loyalty with AI-powered personalized experiences
Learn how personalization can strengthen engagement, build trust, and turn providers and payers into trusted partners
Healthcare consumers want safe access to accurate health information in real time. They expect proactive communication on their preferred channels as well as tailored programs from their provider over the course of treatment. From payer communication during open enrollment, to personalized medication management, to help scheduling and maintaining appointments, people want to feel like their healthcare teams are invested, trusted partners in their health journeys.
Without a single view across touchpoints, providers and payers find it difficult to engage patients and members consistently, often leading to dissatisfaction and disengagement. This can affect trust and retention, and negatively impact health and business outcomes.
Strengthening engagement and building trust requires that providers and payers create tailored communications based on patient and member demographics, health status, and personal preferences. This will allow them to:
- Access rich audience insights: Use data from multiple sources — including second- and third-party data, email engagement, SMS interactions, and website visits — to securely and efficiently reach your target audience
- Enhance acquisition with lookalikes: Grow your target audience by identifying individuals who possess similar attributes and re-engage inactive consumers
- Optimize physician relationships: Build professional email campaigns, track engagement, and follow up with speed from a single platform
The next step is to personalize the experience. Using contextually relevant messages and omni-channel communications, providers and payers can consistently reach consumers on any device at the right time. Personalizing interactions across the entire health journey requires that you:
- Create tailored journeys: Manage the entire journey — acquisition, enrollment, onboarding, care appointments, and ongoing wellness tips — with an experience built around health needs and preferences.
- Power omni-channel conversations: Engage consumers at the right time on any device and channel with personalized, relevant content that motivates healthy behavior.
- Automate workflows: Use prebuilt templates and automated workflows to improve employee productivity and create tailored wellness journeys at scale.
