Allied's Enhanced Case Management Program supports members in getting the care they need to achieve long-term success. The ECM team identified a member with a serious mental health issue requiring a hospital admission. Upon discharge, the ECM Specialist and Allied Care Behavioral Specialist worked with the member to find the most appropriate Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). The member remains engaged in the program and has expressed much appreciation for the assistance. By helping the member get the care needed, the member is on the path to achieving long-term recovery and has yet to be re-admitted to the hospital.

Allied's Enhanced Case Management Program recently identified a member who was receiving specialty infusion treatments every four weeks at an outpatient hospital setting costing nearly $21,000 per infusion. Allied’s ECM team explored opportunities to lower costs without disrupting treatments. Through careful research and coordination with the member and their provider, ECM helped transition the member's care to their home, where they could safely continue receiving their treatments. During a routine follow up outreach, the member expressed to their ECM Advocate that they appreciate the comfort and convenience of receiving their treatments at home. Through transitioning the member’s site of care, infusion costs were reduced 32% each treatment, saving the employer over $80,000 in a single year.

In 2020, mental health-related emergency department visits among those aged 12 to 17 increased 31% compared to 2019, according to the CDC. As many families prepare to return to in-person school in the fall after more than a year of stress, isolation, grief and fear, how we address the mental health needs of students will be critical. Between stigma and limited resources made available to young adults, Allied’s Enhanced Case Management aims to reimagine how we help our members by taking a holistic and empathetic approach to health and wellbeing. By using data analytics and personal outreach, Allied’s ECM Specialists engage our members in a more proactive and connected way.

In a recent case, a dependent child was admitted to the hospital after engaging in self-harm. Allied’s ECM Specialist reached out to their family, understanding that the child had an ongoing battle with mental health and was struggling to cope. After building a rapport, the ECM Specialist worked with the member and their family to build a long-term plan, connecting them with an appropriate mental health provider. With the ongoing support and resources from ECM, the member has been able to stay on track with their course of care.

Employers and Health Plan Administrators together have an incredible opportunity to drive workforce wellness by ensuring members have access to high-quality and appropriate care. While many look to our physicians and pharmacies as the point of safeguard, a significant influencer is the role of payers - like Allied.

Allied’s Enhanced Case Management (ECM) team uses data analytics and clinical expertise to make sure our members are protected and empowered when it comes to their health care.

In a recent case, the ECM team identified a new member prescribed a Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) for opioid use disorder who was filling two separate prescriptions for this same treatment drug. Through evaluation, the ECM team also learned that this member had multiple ER visits related to stress and anxiety. Soon after the employer switched to Allied, the ECM team reached out to the member – to offer support, educate about safe prescription use, and advocate for the member to have more regular visits with their addiction counselor. In recent follow-ups with the ECM specialist, the member shared their progress in coping with anxiety and confirmed that their prescriber had reduced their prescription quantity by half.

At Allied, Enhanced Case Management (ECM) plays a critical role in helping people get the right support, at the right time. By combining Allied's proprietary data algorithms with the expertise of Allied's specialists, our high-tech, high-touch advocacy model enables our Care Advocates to intervene with a personalized plan of action when at-risk members are identified.

In a recent case, Allied’s platform identified a member who had accumulated over $50K in medical charges within a single year due to diabetes complications. Our ECM team engaged the member and learned that he had been struggling to manage his health throughout the pandemic. ECM connected the member with a dedicated Allied Care Health Coach. The ongoing support from the health coach has shown significant improvement in the management of his condition, avoiding further complications.

Creating a win-win situation for both our clients and their employees is Allied's ultimate mission. In a recent case, an Allied client was facing exorbitant costs resulting from infusion therapy claims - a critical component in the treatment plan for the daughter of one of their employees. Recognizing the severe financial impact to our client, Allied’s ECM specialist intervened - securing an alternative coverage plan for the patient that guaranteed the same superior care, while protecting the sustainability of our client’s business. A true win for all.
