Hear Insights shared by HDMS and esteemed partner Integrated Benefits Institute (IBI) in this On-demand webinar: SDoH Insights and Analytics – Delayed Care in 2023.
This was originally presented as part of an AHIP webinar series.
What trends do we see in delayed and deferred care since the pandemic?
Let’s dig even deeper… how do social factors influence care utilization and what will that mean for costs in 2023?
What can we do about it?
On-demand webinar: Measuring Mental Health Costs: Insights That Will Blow Your Mind! – originally presented as part of an AHIP webinar series.
HDMS experts share a number of hot new analytic approaches that reveal additional costs of mental health. Take a deeper look into mental health and also investigate how social determinants of health relate to care needs and costs.
We’re used to looking at a lot of healthcare metrics – utilization, costs, outcomes. Even just a little more data can tell us a lot more about people in context.
Check out how Plan Sponsors are surfacing measurable differences within their populations, by adding just a little more data into their analytics.
DEI initiatives need vision
born out of facts.
REAL and SOGI data as well as the HDMS social determinants of health (SDoH) enrichments allow a much deeper investigation into health patterns and costs.
Measuring these differences allows us to take what we anecdotally see or suspect, and support it with facts.
Collegaues focused on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) agendas are wonderful partners. Share these insights with them. The numbers give your organization a brilliant set of facts to help drive decisions aligned to company goals.
We’ll help you surface these insights at your organization. Ask to hear more about the possibilities.
Join the movement. We’ll help you get started on measuring how healthcare needs and patterns change across different subpopulations at your organization.
See how easy it is to look at how social determinants of health influence your population. Find where inequities exist and track progress of program efforts.
Predictive models are an amazingly powerful use of data. And we have so many new reasons to use these advanced approaches to offset rising costs of care and challenging health conditions: deferred care, the increased need for mental health care, and virtual care adoption are disrupting historical patterns. How do predictive models work? Where is it best to consider using predictive analytics? What should you be doing with the results?
Watch this webinar to learn about how predictive analytics can fit into an overall analytic strategy. Invest in capabilities that allow you to act upon results, instead of sitting in reports in your inbox. Predictive analytics, when put to purpose, can be an instrumental part of a broader strategy to drive down costs and improve health. Make sure you have the big picture so you get the most from these investments.

Health plans typically design benefit offerings by assessing patterns of utilization and cost data in previous years. Thanks to disruptor-in-chief, COVID-19, this traditional approach was rendered inadequate to say the least.
With the pandemic demanding agility, many health plans turned to flexible data analytics and infrastructures capable of generating original, actionable intelligence at a moment’s notice. Having the ability to respond rapidly to their clients’ immediate data needs, despite ongoing uncertainties, is much like having a fire truck ready to put out fires whenever and wherever they arise.
Health plans needed to quickly pivot business processes to align with evolving customer needs. For healthcare benefits administrator Meritain Health, the large-scale shift in the consumption of care that followed the onset of the pandemic required swift adjustments to accommodate changes in multiple areas: fluctuating sites of service and code sets and payment structures, to name a few. Hence Meritain implemented several strategic variations to their business processes.
