Clalit Mushlam Revolutionizing Patient Care with Blings.io Technology
Background
Clalit Mushlam, a premier division of Clalit, Israel’s largest healthcare organization, offers comprehensive health coverage to over 4.5 million members. Renowned for its extensive healthcare services, Clalit Mushlam provides tailored solutions to meet the diverse needs of its members. The program stands out for its emphasis on preventive care, wellness, and advanced medical treatments, supported by a robust network of 1,400 clinics, over 9,000 healthcare professionals, and approximately 420 pharmacies. Clalit Mushlam’s commitment to integrating technology in healthcare has been pivotal in enhancing patient experiences and streamlining healthcare delivery across Israel.
Challenges
Clalit Mushlam faced significant operational challenges impacting patient care and organizational efficiency. The organization grappled with high call center costs due to the lack of an interactive, accessible platform for patients to obtain appointment details and essential documents. Additionally, the existing reminder systems were ineffective, leading to frequent instances of patients forgetting necessary documents, resulting in a high rate of last-minute cancellations and no-shows. Another critical issue was patients arriving at clinics with incorrect documentation, causing rescheduling and inefficient use of valuable appointment slots. In addressing these challenges, Clalit Mushlam must also uphold the highest standards of data security to protect patient information and maintain trust in their services
Campaign
Clalit Mushlam partnered with Blings.io to address these challenges by implementing a series of interactive, automated, and dynamic videos. These personalized videos, tailored to each patient’s insurance package and service modules, included appointment details, necessary medical document reminders, location directions, and medical staff information. This strategy aimed to reduce call center dependency and provide patients with a more personalized and informative experience.
Blings.io’s technology ensured real-time, on-demand video creation, pulling the most recent data when a patient requested the video. This approach allowed Clalit Mushlam to make timely updates, conduct A/B testing, and optimize video elements for better performance. The flexibility of this video format also meant that the content remained relevant for longer periods without frequent redesigns.
A critical aspect of Blings.io’s solution was its robust security measures. Given the unique MP5 video format is created on the end users device, Blings.io ensures all communication remains between the Clalit member and Clalit, never exposing any user data to a third party. The partnership not only addressed the operational inefficiencies but also aligned with the high standards of data security required in the healthcare industry.
