InformationWeek has included Health Advocate in its HealthCare List. Health Advocate’s Health Information Dashboard has been included in HealthCare List of “12 Cool Tech Innovations Keep You Healthy”. An announcement in this regard has been made by the top independent healthcare advocacy and assistance company in the nation, Health Advocate.
In a release, Martin Rosen, executive vice president and co-founder of Health Advocate said, “We are excited to be recognized by InformationWeek. This clearly affirms our strategy of using technology to support our health advocacy and wellness solutions to help identify gaps in care and pinpoint opportunities to make and encourage improved healthcare decisions.”
Employees are provided with a connection to all benefits through a single, toll-free phone number by the proprietary solution, Benefits Gateway. A feature of this solution is Health Information Dashboard. Powerful algorithms are used by the Health Information Dashboards to interpret data from multiple sources. A snapshot of key member information about benefits use and specific health indicators is also provided by the dashboard. Apart from boosting productivity, this will help in lowering medical costs and improving health outcomes.
Health Advocate’s core health advocacy service is complemented by the Health Information Dashboard. The Dashboard comes in three versions, Personal Health Advocate; Employee; and Employer. The Personal Health Advocate can be used by nurses and benefit experts. They can use the dashboard information in real time while helping members with a range of clinical, administrative and insurance-related issues. An easily readable, consolidated snapshot of an employee’s health and benefits and features is featured by the employee’s private and secure dashboard. Analysis on the company’s health-related spending is provided by the employer’s dashboard.
Each party can have the right information at hand at any time with the Dashboard from Health Advocate. Information and processes for employees and employers are simplified by combining Benefits Gateway and Health Information Dashboard. Employees can be therefore engaged by PHAs in managing their specific health needs. For the second year in a row, Health Advocate has been included in Deloitte’s Technology Fast 500. The company has now been also included on InformationWeek’s list.
