2024 Trends for Payer IT
Nov-23 DOC # US51408823 Presentation
Authors:
Summary
This IDC Market Presentation defines each of the four trends in payer IT to provide context for planning in 2024. It then provides essential guidance for payers within the context of these trends. These trends have been presented to multiple payer-supplying vendor user groups in 4Q23. Each trend is complex, nonintuitive, and layered.
"Payers are undergoing a crisis of relevance, cost, and increased consumer expectations. Their core business model is failing; they are limited by regulation, costs beyond their control, legacy technical debt, and a supercharged retail environment that causes their members to demand a retail-like excellence while providing the security and privacy of the past," says Jeff Rivkin, director of Payer IT Strategies at IDC Health Insights.

IDC Survey: Future of Industry Ecosystems — Healthcare
Nov-23 DOC # US51371123 Presentation
Authors:
Summary
This IDC Survey examines results from IDC's Worldwide Future of Industry Ecosystems Survey.
In May and June 2023, we fielded our third annual global survey to 1,288 executives across 5 regions and 11 countries. The goal was to determine executive and business leader sentiment on industry ecosystems, maturity of current approach, and future plans for IT and use case investment. Respondents spanned multiple domains including CXOs, business-line executives, and IT leadership. Industry coverage is across 10 industries: architecture/engineering/construction (AEC); energy; discrete and process manufacturing (and subindustries); healthcare; life sciences; financial services; government and education; telco, media, and entertainment; retail; and transportation/logistics.
Key findings from the survey include:
- Improving end-customer engagement is a primary driver of industry ecosystems.
- AI is growing in importance as a key decision-support technology in industry ecosystems.
- Environmental sustainability remains a key initiative for industry ecosystem partners.
What is clear is that organizations in every industry are looking to open and expand their industry ecosystem as part of becoming a digital-first business. Shared data and insights, shared applications, and shared operations and expertise are enhanced with this approach — becoming not only a way to ensure flexibility and resiliency but also a way to grow revenue and profitability.
This document is focused on the healthcare industry. While operational efficiency and cost savings are paramount, improving patient engagement and of course outcomes through data, technology, and expertise continues to be a focus. To achieve this, healthcare organizations are focused on expanding their ecosystems to a multifaceted set of partners so there is on-demand and as-needed data, applications, capacity, and capability to complement their operations. Multiple examples of the future of industry ecosystems exist in this industry (highlighted in this document), proving the benefit of sharing data and insights, sharing and codeveloping applications, and sharing operations and expertise across ecosystems.

This IDC Market Perspective discusses price transparency at AHIP and in the healthcare industry.
"One year in, the industry should take a pause and reflect on the fiction that is executing. Price transparency has snowballed from a politician's talking point to legislation to regulation to an expensive, ongoing administrative facade," states Jeff Rivkin, research director, IDC Health Insights. "The exchanged data is seriously flawed, and even if the data was good, the vast majority of consumers do not have the time, money, patience, medical literacy, or desire to actually shop for procedures.

Authors:
Summary
IDC Innovators are emerging vendors with revenue <$100 million that have demonstrated either a groundbreaking business model or an innovative new technology — or both. This IDC Innovators study profiles four vendors in the AI for behavioral health market: Aiberry, NeuroFlow, RethinkFirst, and Twill (formerly Happify Health). Solutions offered by these companies help improve access to behavioral and mental health resources, which are in short supply, and improve consumer engagement by providing high-touch services via a digital platform.
The behavioral health technology market is highly fragmented with thousands of point solutions, reflecting the wide range of behavioral and mental health issues, including anxiety, depressions, general stress, burnout from the pandemic, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Many companies in this space are start-ups with a mission to address the growing behavioral and mental health issues using technology, such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and natural language processing (NLP).
"Technology can address barriers to care by increasing access to online behavioral and mental health resources that helps reduce the perceived stigma associated with needing these services," states Lynne A. Dunbrack, group vice president, Public Sector. "AI technologies accelerate identifying patients most in need of care, power conversational AI chatbots that triage consumers to appropriate resources, and create personalized care plans, all of which engenders more consumer engagement and thus successful patient outcomes."

Summary
This IDC study provides an evaluation of five vendors that provide payer solutions for product/plan configuration. The vendors we chose include front-runners in the industry that were chosen for their market share and penetration of their potential growth opportunities.
According to Jeff Rivkin, research director, Payer IT Strategies at IDC Health Insights, "Product/plan configurators are being implemented by payers that want to compete for consumers and groups aggressively with speed to market, flexible product offerings, and expansion to Medicare Advantage and ancillary products. As payers attempt to find new revenue and respond to governmental and competitive pressures, the ability to bring a creative product to market fast and effectively will be a competitive advantage. Those that can't may not survive the onslaught of value-based reimbursement, flexible networks, price competition, and consumer demand."
