McKesson’s Wukitch to Unlock the Consumer Engagement Conundrum at AHIP’s Institute 2015
May 29, 2015
Executive shares proven strategies to help health plans improve provider and member engagement and ultimately, growth
NEWTON, Mass., May 29, 2015—At AHIP’s Institute 2015, McKesson Health Solutions’ Carolyn Wukitch, senior vice president and general manager, Network Financial Management, will tackle some of the key provider and consumer engagement questions confronting health plans today, not the least of which are increasing regulatory pressure and the business imperative to provide “up to the minute” accurate payer directories—a crucial component of quality consumer engagement.
Wukitch will present “What do consumers and networks have in common?” at AHIP’s Institute 2015 in Nashville on Wednesday, June 3rd at 3:15 p.m. in room 205C. Ms. Wukitch will cover how a health plan’s network strategy can also be the cornerstone of an effective consumer engagement program that helps health plans:
- Quickly design and deploy custom networks for targeted populations
- Efficiently design and deploy the right provider network with the right incentives
- Enroll providers promptly so consumers know they’re in the health plan’s network
- Accurately help consumers know if their doctor is in the health plan’s network
- Help direct members to high-performing providers
- Help pay claims right the first time, every time, according to the contract
“With the increase in the number of people enrolled in exchanges, Managed Medicaid, and Medicare, health plans need to swiftly develop competitive benefit designs, new products, and new networks that incent healthy behaviors and appeal to the new consumer,” Wukitch said. “Consumers have more choices and are likely to select and stay with plans that offer transparency, accurate provider directories and, ultimately, a positive member experience. In the session, I’ll show how transforming your provider network strategy is the key to engaging your consumers.”
AHIP’s Institute 2015 will gather America’s healthcare professionals to focus on making healthcare work better for consumers and the entire ecosystem. McKesson will answer attendees’ questions and exhibit its solution set of products and services that help navigate complex market challenges and “Focus Ahead for Better Health” at Booth #903.
