Population Health for High-Risk Members Who Rely on Family Caregivers

Presented By:
Dirk Soenksen
Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Ceresti Health

Learn how empowering family caregivers (e.g., spouses and adult children) can achieve the Triple Aim for the 30% of Medicare Advantage plan members that have a cognitive impairment (e.g., dementia) or complex care needs. These members incur 65% of all hospitalizations, and more than 80% of all potentially preventable hospitalizations (PPH). This PHA Member Showcase webinar will provide a claims-based rationale for why family caregiver empowerment can be a valuable supplemental benefit for your members and will highlight results from Ceresti’s technology/coaching program.
