ZeOmega Announces Member Engagement Webinar Series

"As healthcare heads toward population health management, payers are realizing that the success of their initiatives in improving the overall health of their members depends to a great extent on the effectiveness of their member engagement programs," said Nandini Rangaswamy, CFO and executive vice president for ZeOmega. "In order to deploy an effective member engagement program, plans must embrace the right strategies and tools that are reflective of their population's needs and their organization's goals. This webinar series will explore the nuances of member engagement, and discuss how IT systems fit into the equation."

Ms. Rangaswamy continued, "We're very excited to be working with Judith Frampton on this series. She has an amazing track record of leading population health management programs. As a highly sought-after speaker and consultant, Judith brings a wealth of knowledge and experience in member engagement."

The first webinar will be held on Thursday, December 8, 2011 at 2pm EDT. Registrations for this session can be completed at http://bit.ly/rXsNm7.

In the first session, attendees will learn why and how member engagement contributes to success, why it's important to let go of some firmly held beliefs, and the relationships between risk, resources and ROI. Attendees will also see how to right-size outreach efforts and where IT systems fit in.

Additional sessions will discuss the total cost of poor employee health, the real drivers of employer health care costs, how to bring surprising value to your clients, real opportunities for personalization and real examples of a complete member engagement package.

The final session will cover a current client case study from ZeOmega.
