"The
Economics and Cost/Benefit of Customer Retention: Why It's Imperative
for Managed Care Organizations"
The decisions
of employer groups and individual consumers to leave health plans represent
a potential loss of millions of dollars each year. This session will
explore how an investment in disenrollment tracking systems, an integrated
research plan, and a retention action plan can pay significant dividends
through increased revenues and reduced acquisition costs. Participants
will:
- Learn
how to calculate the costs of disenrollment and potential savings
- Examine
the profit-driven models of consumer retention
- Understand
the benefits of coding & reporting reasons for disenrollment and
distributing "dashboard" tracking charts to senior managers
- Maximize
the value delivered by research dollars through coordinated research
efforts that include members, former members, health plan employees,
and payers
