While this approach has generally served plans well up to now, it also generates a high degree of technical debt, risk of data leakage, and potential compliance concerns. As a result, plans are not tapping into the full potential of their capabilities to drive business efficiencies and are missing opportunities to improve quality of care and health outcomes for their members. To maximize the data and technologies available, plans will need to become more refined and nimbler with enterprise-level data strategies and platforms, harmonizing data from various sources to support disparate use cases across the business.<\/p>\n<p>Current data sources will expand and there will be more data sources available to tap into going forward. \u00a0Signs indicate that plans have begun to catch up to the rapid growth of data and technology, and in the future, will be even better equipped as they leverage knowledge and technology.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Figure 1.

Technology will continue to outpace regulation. Health plans should demonstrate responsible use and collaborate with healthcare stakeholders and policymakers to shape regulations for the advancement of shared interests and better member care. As plans\u2019 use of data evolves, it will be necessary to find ways to harmonize data from various sources and leverage technologies that reduce administrative burden and enhance member care. To ensure trust from members, providers, and policymakers, it is critical for plans to harness AI in a way that supports\u2014rather than replaces\u2014stakeholders\u2019 expertise and function. <a href=\"https:\/\/pages.avalere.com\/Insights.html\">Connect with us<\/a>\u00a0to learn more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This Insight was written in partnership with Teddy Gedamu and Mia Bolton of Tenasol.
