1. Increase the Number of Insured
Build central, consistent messaging that continuously encourages residents to seek out any and all healthcare insurance options in new and novel ways.
2. Increase the Number of Annual Exams
Deliver central, consistent messaging that continuously encourages residents to seek out preventative care through annual exams which are important for certain screenings and early signs of chronic diseases.
3. Reduce Unnecessary ER Visits
Help residents understand when to use emergency rooms versus urgent care facilities versus a primary care provider.
4. Help Educate Patients
Through consistent, easy-to-understand messaging, build a base of residents that are more informed, engaged, and literate healthcare consumers.
5. Increase Communication, Coordination, and Collaboration
Communicate with other providers around what programs are available by coordinating messaging, collaborating to eliminate redundancies and fill gaps, and devoting the appropriate resources to fill gaps.
