CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nHinduja Global Solutions (HGS) (listed in BSE & NSE) announced today that Michele Kratz, Vice President of Operations for its subsidiary, HGS AxisPoint Health LLC (HGS AxisPoint Health), will be presenting on \u201cMember Engagement Using a Multimodal Approach\u201d at the Special Needs Plan (SNP) Alliance Spring Roundtable on Thursday, April 8 at 10:00am ET. The SNP Alliance is the leading voice for specialized health plans for those that need them most, focusing on improving the health and well-being of individuals living with significant, complex needs through specialized managed care.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThe use of technology to strengthen member engagement has evolved rapidly in response to the COVID-19 pandemic,\u201d said Michele Kratz, Vice President of Operations for HGS AxisPoint Health<\/b>. \u201cWe will explore strategies to incorporate the use of technology to increase engagement and re-engagement of the Dual Special Needs Plan (D-SNP) population. The need to go deep into the local community is essential for engaging and understanding D-SNP membership needs. We will discuss incorporating Community Health Workers into the MOC 2 model to support initial and ongoing engagement of a D-SNP membership.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nThe Company also announced the introduction of its next generation Special Needs Plan (SNP) Model of Care solution, one of the only programs of its kind specifically designed to take a \u201cwhole person\u201d approach to care management for members. According to CMS.gov, \u201cThe MOC provides the basic framework under which the SNP will meet the needs of each of its enrollees\u2026ensuring that the unique needs of each enrollee are identified by the SNP and addressed through the plan’s care management practices.\u201d AxisPoint Health\u2019s version 2.0 of its longstanding SNP MOC solution adds additional capabilities regarding identification, engagement, and addressment of social determinants of health (SDoH).\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cWith 90% of the nation\u2019s annual health care spending going toward chronic disease and mental health conditions<\/a>, a whole person approach is critical to lowering health care costs and improving health outcomes. Our SNP Model of Care uses data analytics to stratify all members and deploys both telehealth clinicians and locally-based community health workers to meet these individuals \u2018where they are\u2019 to boost engagement and address health barriers,\u201d said Ramesh Gopalan, President of HGS Healthcare<\/b>.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cCOVID-19, which has caused more than 40% of Americans to report at least one mental or behavioral condition<\/a>, has illuminated the need for payers to partner with Whole Person solutions within their SNP Model of Care which target the most at-risk and impactable members and aims to understand holistic health barriers, including behavioral and social determinants of health, in order to develop individualized care plans for their needs,\u201d said Zac Fritz, CEO at HGS AxisPoint Health<\/b>.\n<\/p>\n
