Even before the passage of the Affordable Care Act, the healthcare industry had faced many changes and a great deal of consolidation. With the rise of health savings accounts, retail location-based convenience clinics, higher deductible consumer-driven health plans, and more, the very nature of how healthcare is managed and delivered has evolved significantly. From the healthcare provider’s perspective, this is making it difficult to offer an effective customer experience that simplifies a consumer’s ability to acquire more and better information about a wide range of options and costs.
This system is perplexing and challenging to both consumers and employers, but UnitedHealthcare has been able to leverage technology to create a customer experience that brings value to individual members and employers.
