About This Webinar

Traditionally, ancillary benefits service models have been piecemeal across several different stakeholders. In a time where traditional approaches are insufficient and new entrant disrupters are specializing in “niche” services, a holistic approach to ancillary services can help health insurance plans stay ahead of the curve.

Optum is developing innovative health care solutions to connect holistic services to support condition diagnostics and management. Specifically, Optum has recently unveiled its innovative solution for Durable Medical Equipment (DME) Benefits Management, DME Navigator, with CareCentrix, transforming the health care experience.

Attendees will follow a patient’s DME use case journey to learn how improvements in service quality – ensuring members receive the right equipment, for the right medical need, at the right time, from a reliable supplier – drives consistent cost savings and foster a more transparent, frictionless and reliable health care experience.

Attendees Will Learn About

  • Overcoming Traditional Market Challenges: Enhance service quality, remove operational friction, and address fragmented care
  • Visibility and Transparency in DME: Tackle costly delays and limited stakeholder visibility in the DME landscape
  • Innovative Features of DME Navigator: Streamline utilization management, ensure claims compliance, and enhance the supplier network
