OM DENNE EPISODE
Bob Farrell, CEO of mPulse, is using digital technology, data analytics and AI to improve the relationship between health plans and their members in order to improve health outcomes and operational efficiency. Bob introduces the concept of HXI, Health Experience and Insights, as a framework that unites data, intelligence, and personalized communication to provide tools to enage members at the best time and by the preferred methods with appropriate information at the right time. Analyzing claims data enables plans to identify high-risk patients, promote preventive care, and build health literacy.
Bob explains, "The mission of mPulse, and this has really been the mission of the company since its founding in 2015, is to improve the health outcomes of our customers' members and patients. So we're looking to close gaps in care. We're looking to increase literacy so that members and patients can understand their health plans. So providers can take charge of healthcare and improve those outcomes. And while we're doing that, we try to help our customers improve their operational efficiencies. Most of our customers are health plans and they range from small community plans to large nationals. The 60 largest plans are our customers. We have a wide array of customers and continue to expand on that base, both with new customers and by doing more with the customers that we have."
"Health plans are not known to be the early adopters of technology. So you're right. A lot of them are still transitioning from older ways of doing things. But in general, health plans have a huge trust issue with their members, and it has really resulted from a lack of engagement, a lack of positive experience. So we see a lot of health plans looking to embrace technology to improve the member experience, make sure that those members are getting outreach. Not just now and then, but during the whole course of their consumer health journey, so that they can be aware of what things they have available to them, so that they can easily adjudicate claims and easily find providers."
