Digital technologies will transform the health insurance business and early adopters have started to implement new digital business models with initial success, according to a new Research2Guidance report. The report reveals new digital models are changing the way the insurers interact with patients.
For example, digital insurers have reworked the trust equation with the patient, outsourced much of their value chain to their members, and now know much more about them. Digital business models tend to also blur the lines between payer and caregiver organizations. Some of the first-movers already crossed the line and started to offer services which have previously been provided exclusively by doctors and nurses.
The ten disruptive digital business models that will transform the health insurance business are defined as follows:
1. Digitally assisted member acquisition is a freemium business model concept.
2. Mobile health concierge is a business approach designed for members to complete all health insurance tasks using mobile phones with the support from a concierge team.
3. Peer-to-peer (P2P) insurance refers to a risk-sharing community.
4. Mobile micro-insurance refers to the health insurance plans that cover short-term small health events or minimal ongoing health insurance.
5. Health insurers tech platforms license their technology for the management of health plans and members to their customers.
6. On-demand insurance is a usage-based model that enables members to access desired health plans upon request with the help of a mobile app.
7. High-risk patient preventive care model concentrates on insuring and managing potentially costly patient groups.
8. The payer & provider collaboration model stands for a closer, digitally enabled partnership between payers and care providers, especially hospitals.
9. The API health insurance model uses a list of pre-defined health insurance products accessible to websites and app providers via an application programming interface (API).
10. Direct primary care model. Within this model, a care provider or a hospital act like a health insurance company using a monthly subscription model.
