Shifting your mindset: The 7-part plan to achieve Member Advocacy
What is Member Advocacy?
It’s not a buy-up. Or a workflow management system. And it’s certainly not a plug-and-play product.
Member Advocacy is a holistic health plan service model. Under a Member Advocacy model, integrated technologies facilitate trusting human relationships. Members have better access to the staff and clinicians that can help them. And clinicians are better equipped to address member needs, no matter where they are.
And we wrote the book on it.

Shifting your mindset: The 7-part plan to achieve Member Advocacy
Navigating the healthcare system can be overwhelming for members. And understanding what members need can be overwhelming for health plans. Working with a Member Advocacy model can help staff extend their reach and uncover valuable member insights.
In this book, healthcare leaders and subject matter experts discuss the key challenges and opportunities facing U.S. health plans. Gain a deeper understanding of what health plan members really expect from their healthcare experience. And identify ways you can empower both staff and members to achieve their best.
An Advocacy model emphasizes using technology to deliver personalized care and benefits information directly to members. Digitizing care management and customer service allows your teams to be more proactive and efficient, while improving member experience. With Member Advocacy, health plans can holistically address member needs and deliver the highest possible value to members and employer groups.
Digital health management tools are reshaping interactions between members and health plans. Health plans must also shift their view of the health plan member journey.

Health plans enjoy many structural advantages—they have access to lots of data, provider relationships, employer relationships, scale, etc. But plans’ slowness to improve has left a void that is quickly being filled by new entrants.
