Accelerating digital health

Digital innovations can help guide employers to a better understanding of unmet healthcare needs and opportunities, and support the requirements of a modern workforce. Find out how you can use digital solutions to enhance business improvements and transform workforce well-being, engagement and culture.

People management practices have not kept pace with other technological developments

Rapid digital transformation is a priority for organizations all over the world. As digitization accelerates, there is an ever-growing risk that your people strategy will be out of step with the future-forward needs of your business. Employers must not only make changes to their business delivery, but also create a truly digital work experience for their employees.

Employee expectations are changing. As such, HR technologies need to keep pace with employee expectations and HR teams must design employee experiences that are fit for a flexible, digital working environment.

Fortunately, accelerated digitization has led to an explosion in digital health and well-being programs, which have become more relevant and have gained significant traction. However, people management practices have not kept pace with other technological developments. Risks involving cybersecurity, loss of personal information, and system obsolescence are heightened due to how HR data is maintained, and how benefits and other HR programs are delivered.

In many organizations, figuring out how to enroll and access benefits continues to be a paper-intensive and frustrating experience.

Ease this frustration through digital “front doors” or hubs that give employees easy access to well-being programs and an intuitive benefits experience. This means you can engage better with your people and support them during moments that matter. It also provides you with better cost visibility and utilization insights.
