Increase Engagement, Not Just Outreach with Gilsbar Coach
“Gilsbar Coach is the smart approach to health management.”
Gilsbar continually works to help our clients by simplifying their experience, lowering costs, and improving health. With our newest offering, Gilsbar Coach, powered by Nudge, we offer all three of these in a simple yet powerful tool.
Gilsbar Coach is a new communication and member engagement tool built to enrich Population Health Management program engagement and performance.
Gilsbar Coach enables quick and secure clinical messaging and sharing of data with members participating in one of our Population Health Management or Wellness programs. This new messaging system is personalized and interactive, referencing the member’s individual health goals, status, and allows coaches or nurses to collaborate with members on actionable next steps to healthy living.
Ensuring our members receive the greatest possible care is our priority. Using communication channels familiar to the member that promote a collaborative care plan guarantees greater success in our efforts to build better outcomes and reduce overall costs for both employers and employees.
This collaborative tool allows the member and clinician to coordinate schedules for a direct meeting without sacrificing timely, practical and high-quality clinical assistance. We know the clinical care plans offered through Gilsbar Coach distinguish our program from other app or messaging tools.
Paul Johnson, Gilsbar’s Director of Population Health, noted, “The ultimate goal of Gilsbar’s Population Health Management programs is to lower costs for the employer and optimize the health of their employees and this is another tool we use to do that.”
Engagement means more than outreach. It is undeniable that there can be roadblocks, which prevent or delay a member’s path to healthier living. Your members are not standing by, waiting for a call from a nurse or health coach; they are busy people with lives and full calendars.
Gilsbar Coach makes clinical help accessible. “Since our inception we’ve always looked to align with organizations that share our vision for more humanized approaches to engaging members,” added Nudge CEO, Mac Gambill. “Over the past six months we’ve worked closely with the Gilsbar team to launch a solution that we are all proud of, and that offers members a more personalized, connected experience with the Gilsbar coaching teams.”
Gilsbar Coach provides a seamless, simplistic and action-oriented communication network. Ensuring our process is as easy-to-use as possible increases engagement and raises the confidence level of the member. This is just one of the many examples of how Gilsbar works to continually enhance business and improve lives.
