          5 CX trends for your 2024 healthcare strategy

          5 CX trends for your 2024 healthcare strategy

          by Marcus Garcia
          May 23, 2024
          Share

          The intersection of cutting-edge, consumer technology fueled by AI, evolving patient demands, and the relentless pursuit of personalized care is directing the course of healthcare strategy—with no signs of stopping. In fact, according to McKinsey & Company, consumer-focused healthcare strategies can drive more than twice the revenue growth as similar healthcare companies that aren’t prioritizing the patient experience.

          1. Patient-centricity = hyper personalization

          In modern customer experience—and healthcare is no different—personalization isn’t just a buzzword, it’s an imperative. Past eras of treating patients as medical cases or insurance claim numbers have given way to a new paradigm that recognizes patients as unique individuals with distinctive preferences, aspirations and narratives. Hyper-personalization takes center stage as the pinnacle of patient-centricity, defining your healthcare strategy for 2024. This is supported by data published by the National Library of Medicine in 2023, which found that customized experiences are more effective in promoting lasting behavioral changes.

          Using digital technology for personalized engagement can enhance a patient’s experience, offering timely and relevant actions, especially when healthcare staffing shortages make traditional personalization difficult. Strategic deployment of digital resources can complement traditional patient care, scaling personalization for the benefit of both patients and providers. In particular, digital customization helps in:

          • Identifying patients who qualify for specific procedures, services, or outreach
          • Engaging patients with tailored calls to action
          • Enhancing care with digital resources
          • Continuously tracking patient progress to provide ongoing support.

          As you shape your healthcare strategy, the power of data-driven insights can become your guiding compass. Patient data isn’t merely information—it’s the key to forging connections that transcend the clinical encounter. Leveraging patient data empowers you to predict their needs, address concerns before they escalate, and curate interactions that foster lasting relationships. By weaving hyper-personalization into your strategy, each touchpoint becomes a testament to your commitment to patient well-being, nurturing trust and loyalty that withstands the test of time.

          Telehealth

          2. Bridge physical and virtual care with telehealth integration

          In the tapestry of healthcare strategy, telehealth isn’t a mere addendum—it’s a transformative thread that binds physical and virtual care into a cohesive continuum. The year 2024 isn’t just about embracing telehealth as a response to the times; it’s about recognizing its role as a seismic shift in patient access and engagement with healthcare services. Telehealth integration isn’t a checkbox; it’s the bridge that connects patients to care, transcending geographical constraints and transforming the patient journey.

          Imagine a healthcare strategy that positions telehealth not as a siloed solution but as an immersive experience mirroring the intimacy of in-person encounters. Telehealth platforms become gateways to meaningful interactions, offering intuitive interfaces, secure data exchange, and avenues for patients to engage meaningfully with providers. By breaking the boundaries of physical location, your strategy ensures that patient care is accessible, convenient, and tailored to modern patients’ expectations.

          3. Use predictive analytics to anticipate patient needs

          Predictive analytics stands as a beacon of foresight that illuminates the path to proactive patient engagement. Data isn’t just a collection of numbers; it’s the key to unlocking insights that allow you to anticipate patient needs, allocate resources judiciously, and intervene before issues escalate. This trend embodies a shift from reactive to proactive care, profoundly redefining patient engagement.

          Your healthcare strategy will transform as predictive analytics informs decision-making across every touchpoint. Imagine a scenario where patient non-compliance is identified before it becomes a concern, appointment scheduling is optimized based on historical patterns, and potential health issues are predicted accurately. By integrating predictive analytics, your strategy doesn’t just enhance patient outcomes; it showcases a commitment to not only meeting but exceeding patient expectations through strategic, data-driven interventions.

          4. Seamlessly orchestrate patient journeys

          Within the tapestry of your healthcare strategy, communication isn’t a mere conduit—it’s a symphonic masterpiece orchestrating the intricate journeys of patients. In a landscape where patients use multiple communication channels, your strategy must be a skilled composer, harmonizing these interactions into a seamless melody. Multichannel communication becomes the conductor’s baton, bridging the gap between patients and care, regardless of their preferred avenues.

          Envision a healthcare strategy that embraces tools capable of conducting unified communication across various channels. Whether email, SMS, patient portals, or even social media, each touchpoint should resonate with a consistent message, crafting a tapestry of interconnected experiences. By interweaving seamless multichannel communication into your strategy, you empower patients to engage according to their preferences, cultivating satisfaction that resonates and loyalty that endures.

          The heart of your healthcare strategy lies in crafting an ecosystem where every channel communicates and collaborates to effectively serve the patient’s needs. A patient seeking information through social media receives the same level of care as one reaching out via email or SMS. This harmonious communication makes patients feel valued and understood, creating a rhythm that enriches their experience and fortifies their bond with your healthcare services.

          Elevate experiences

          5. Elevate experiences through automation and AI-powered engagement

          Amid the symphony of your healthcare strategy, AI-powered engagement emerges as the virtuoso that leads with precision, blending automation seamlessly with the human touch. Automation isn’t an estrangement from human connection; it’s an alchemical fusion that amplifies patient experiences. AI-driven solutions become the unseen backstage crew, orchestrating administrative tasks precisely while liberating healthcare professionals to invest their expertise where it matters most: patient interactions.

          Through the adoption of AI tools like speech analytics and other AI-powered automation, you empower healthcare professionals to foster more profound patient connections, facilitating compassionate interactions tailored to individual needs. For example, a tool like speech analytics can be used to record telehealth patient interactions and automatically turn conversation into structured data that can then be used to paint a picture of their needs more fully across all healthcare systems in use. This level of strategic alignment between AI and human interaction elevates routine engagements into memorable experiences and propels your healthcare strategy toward heightened patient satisfaction and the industry will be seeing more and more of it in 2024 and beyond.

          Learn how to provide a unified patient experience solution across the care journey.
