It is well known that many of the most significant drivers of poor physical health – and the resulting high costs – are found further “upstream” and include undertreated mental and behavioral health conditions and social factors impacting health.
With the help of proprietary intelligence and machine learning, Periscope can identify members who are at high risk for developing chronic and expensive health conditions – before they require frequent and costly medical treatment.
Periscope can further give insights into why each member is at increased risk for developing a particular condition, allowing for earlier interventions specifically tailored to the member or groups of members.
When the healthcare system activates these lower-cost interventions further upstream, the result is healthier members and overall reduced healthcare costs.
