Meet Harold, HFM Customer
Harold is a retired long-term resident of Manitowoc who now finds enjoyment in his time gardening, fishing and golfing.
He’s an attentive family man who finds strength in his church and community.
When it comes to his family’s healthcare, he is frustrated by the rising costs and complex discussions about treatments. He doesn’t like doctor turnover. He sees himself as in charge, but in reality, his wife plays a strong role in his healthcare decisions.
Harold likes Holy Family Memorial because he sees it as a reliable organization with caring services and good doctors.
He feels reassured and valued there-- like he is truly seen and understood as a person and patient.

Meet Emily, Prospective HFM CustomerEmily and her husband Mark are expecting their first child. Manitowoc is home to her now but she was not born here.
Emily tries to find a healthy balance in her work and life. She uses technology to help her stay in touch with family, schedule her social life and stay current on the best ways to stay healthy.
She currently considers herself to be very healthy, and therefore chooses to use walk-in care instead of beginning a patient relationship with a primary care physician. This will change now, as she needs an OB.
She appreciates getting as much information before and after her appointment online from the doctor and would prefer to actually schedule her appointments this way too.
When she thinks about HFM, she worries it only covers basic care and will not provide her with the highest level of care she might need for herself and her future family.
When visiting the clinic, she would like to feel like she is the only person the clinic cares for that day--listened to and involved in the decisions.

The Good, the Bad & the Ugly
• A very inefficient way to produce miracles.
• The “system” that has evolved reflects the best and worst of competition, innovation, the clash of capitalism/community, societal inequities,excellence and economic impact.
• Diversity & choice = inconsistency & fragmentation.
Consumerism in transition.As one customer researcher puts it…

The Eyes of the Consumer
"I pledge allegiance to myself and not to the maze ofthe United States of America healthcare system, norto the customer-averse bureaucracy for which itstands, one industry, with care for the rich, andjustice for the few".
~Ryan D. DonohueNational Research Corporation

The Consumer Environment Today
High Deductible Health Plans dominate insured market; family plans $5000-$8000-$14,000
Uneven local economy: $42,000 per household income, population aging and shrinking
Tools for transparency developing but still lack access and understanding
Difficult to engage consumers’ prevention benefits because they fear follow up care costs
“First we’re going to run some tests to help pay off the machine.”
20
“Quick” Fix of the DayHigh Deductible Health Plans
Goal: Involve patients economically in their care.• Leads to greater personal engagement.• Transfers most risk to the patient.
Rationale: Insurers & payers haven’t resolved how to buy value in healthcare. So, make individuals pay lots more for it. After all, they’ll figure it out.
What could possibly go wrong?
21
High Deductible Health PlansQuick Fix or Rocky Road?
Quick FixLower premiums for much less coverage
Direct consumer involvement in decisions
Risk transferred to consumer, provider, society
22
Rocky Road Consumer simply avoids care; <15% actually use their HDHP insurance.
Out of pocket costs increased 5-10x. Wages stagnant.

How’s it Going so Far?

“Quick” Fix? Engaging the Consumer
The greatest innovations over the past decade lie in beginning to really engage patients in their care.
Intelligent health plans encouraging RightCare. Patient Cost Transparency- estimates up front. Patient Portal: Own your report card. Direct Access: Own how you use care. Web-based access, tools and education. Trusted relationships.
26
Patient Engagement Quick Fix or Rocky Road?
Quick FixEncouraged by Federal funding, most consumers will be able to access personal health information and coordinate some of their own care by 2018.
Some providers and all retailers offer direct access to care.
27
Rocky RoadPopulation health is based on primary care, currently undergoing a tsunami of change.
Consumers don’t usually know where to start!
Industry not prepared to deliver consistently or truly engage consumers.
