This next generation of the existing Alegeus solution provides broader
support for the benefits lifecycle and greater influence across the full
spectrum of healthcare benefits. It will guide employers and brokers to
create smart plan designs and empower employees to make smart benefit
choices during open enrollment and throughout the year to get the most
value from every dollar they spend on out-of-pocket healthcare expenses.
Capabilities demonstrated during the show included:
-
A modern, native mobile interface that integrates new health
management capabilities with existing CDH self-service capabilities -
Data-driven tools, including a personalized ‘Smart Score,’ that guide
consumers to make intelligent choices on where to best spend and save
their healthcare dollars -
AI-based recommendations that use historical data to drive better
future outcomes (e.g. “You might have paid too much for this service.”) - A virtual medicine cabinet for managing monthly drug costs
-
Long-term saving recommendations based on healthcare spending habits
(e.g. “You have a chronic condition that will require you to have X
dollars saved for retirement.”) -
Intelligent prompts throughout the app to optimize the member
experience for existing self-service functions beyond HSAs (e.g. “It
looks like you need to provide a receipt for your latest debit card
swipe.”) -
Year-end recommendations about funding and account enrollment that are
based on the past year of health and wealth activity (e.g. “It looks
like you didn’t hit your deductible or max out your HSA. Next year, we
recommend the following funding levels.”)
“As consumer financial responsibility for healthcare grows, consumers
and employers will no longer tolerate poor experiences. This is why we
have worked diligently to deliver this market-disrupting innovation,”
said Steven Auerbach, Alegeus CEO. “By providing a more personalized
consumer experience and delivering meaningful insights to better guide
spending and saving recommendations, the Smart HSA is well positioned to
redefine the benefits selection process and revolutionize the industry.”
The Smart HSA is expected to be fully available to the market in Q1
2020. For more information please click
