SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. – August 17, 2021  Medallia, Inc. (NYSE: MDLA), the global leader in customer and employee experience, today announced the launch of the Medallia Healthcare Payer Member Retention and Engagement Suite. The Healthcare Payer Member Retention and Engagement Suite enables insurers to engage members at key moments during the journey by gathering instantaneous feedback and insights across all channels, surfacing insights to the appropriate teams, and providing recommended actions for a better member experience.

“As it was for most businesses, the pandemic presented complex challenges for healthcare payers regarding coverage and access to care. Healthcare consumers are making decisions based on interactions with their insurers, in near real-time. This dynamic is forcing the industry to take a data-driven approach to engaging members at the right time, with the right message, via the right channel to create more valuable and trusting relationships, driving better long-term outcomes,” Steven Carleton, Vice President Customer Experience, Premera Blue Cross.

  • Decrease churn by empowering teams to resolve friction in the journey and meet members in the moment 
  • Attract new members by delivering seamless and connected experiences with consumers 
  • Improve efficiencies and ease of doing business by optimizing digital communication channels

The solution includes: 

  • Real-time feedback mechanism for capturing member experiences throughout the entire journey, whether in app, digital or over the phone 
  • SMS communication to find an appropriate care provider, manage the claims process, and engage members pre and post encounters 
  • Text analytics to identify themes and trends across the specific member populations with the use of AI and machine learning
  • Video communication platform to prioritize high-risk members, address service recovery needs, and give members an opportunity to leave feedback throughout the process
  • Speech analytics to surface insights from every conversation, combine with other channels for a complete member view, and address pain points in real time
