Palliative Support
manages costs for seriously ill members.
Go beyond a diseases-specific approach to enhance care for seriously ill members
Manage the symptoms and stress for members with serious illness at home
Health plans face a challenging balancing act in managing members with serious illness, striving to improve quality of life while lowering care costs. This is particularly difficult due to obstacles like delayed identification and engagement, disease-specific versus holistic care management, and common misconceptions about palliative care.
As life expectancies increase and the population ages, the need for quality care and the associated costs are expected to continue to grow.
The right support is imperative for members who are seriously ill. The importance of earlier identification, comprehensive assessment, and specialized support are often overlooked. A study has shown that 60% of members who would benefit from palliative care do not receive it1 plus 50% of all healthcare spending is driven by seriously ill members2.
