What’s next after PERS? Leveraging Age Tech to improve member independence and outcomes
Wednesday, September 16th at 1 pm ET
For decades, personal emergency response systems (PERS) have been a cornerstone of home-based safety for health plan members. But as plans face growing pressure to support an increasing number of Long-Term Services and Supports (LTSS) & Medicare Advantage/Dual populations members, emergency response alone may no longer be enough.
Today’s Age Tech solutions enable plans to move beyond reactive interventions and embrace a broader ecosystem of tools that can proactively identify risks, help reduce social isolation, better support daily living activities, and help members live safely and independently at home for longer. By expanding beyond the button, health plans may have opportunities to better support member experiences and outcomes with the potential to positively influence healthcare utilization and cost.
Join Olivia Adams, Associate Director, Health Plan Partnerships at Best Buy Health, as she explores how health plans can take the next step beyond PERS and leverage Age Tech solutions to better support aging in place.
In this webinar, you’ll learn how to:
- Leverage health plan data and insights from PERS programs to launch proactive initiatives focused on fall risk mitigation and social isolation prevention.
- Expand beyond medical alert devices by incorporating enabling technologies that help members better overcome challenges related to mobility, dexterity, communication, and everyday activities.
- Use Tech Help and support services to increase Age Tech adoption and engagement while helping enhance the member experience and satisfaction.
- Build a comprehensive Age Tech strategy and begin measuring its potential impact on member outcomes, engagement, quality of life, and healthcare costs.
