WHO WE HELP OUR SOLUTIONS
"My nurse's knowledge and concern saved my live and early treatment of my symptoms prevented permanent damage."

ActiveHealth® programs can help you take an active role in your health. If you have access to ActiveHealth programs through your health plan or employer, read below to learn how we can help.

Your doctor plays an important role in managing your healthcare. You play an important role as well. ActiveHealth delivers services that give you the information you need to be an active participant in your health. Whether it's learning about an opportunity for better care, a potential medical issue or advice on managing your chronic conditions, ActiveHealth gives you the information you need to work closely with your doctors and make informed medical decisions.

Our services are offered as part of your health plan and your health information is kept strictly confidential.

 

The CareEngine The CareEngine® System: Technology that is watching out for your health.
Our technology, called the CareEngine System, helps improve the quality of care you receive. It compares data from your medical, pharmacy and lab claims against established best medical practices. If an opportunity for better care or a potential medical issue is found, a clinical alert, called a Care Consideration, is issued. Care Considerations are communicated to your doctor, or both you and your doctor. If you get a Care Consideration in the mail, we encourage you to discuss it with your doctor.

As a member of Active Disease Management, your health information is constantly being monitored by the CareEngine System. Your Nurse Care Manager will ask you questions about your diet, exercise, allergies and over-the-counter medications. This information will be fed back into the CareEngine System, compiled with your claims data, and scanned for opportunities for better care or potential medical issues. If an opportunity is found for you, your Nurse Care Manager will contact you to discuss the details of the Care Consideration, answer any questions you may have, and suggest questions to ask your doctor.

Managing family health information just got easier

If you're the one in charge of keeping track of your entire family's medical information, or even just your own, the ActivePHRSM program is a simple yet powerful online tool that can make your life a whole lot easier.

  • Lets you store and easily retrieve all your medical information including test results, immunizations and even family medical history.
  • Automatically updates with all your insurance claims, doctor visits, prescriptions and other information handled through your health plan.
  • Allows you access to your medical files anywhere the Internet is available—at home, at work, or even in the doctor's office.
  • Provides an easy way to share information with doctors, family members or caregivers by either printing out the records or granting online access.
  • Helps doctors get a more complete picture of your health (if you choose to share it) and promotes better interaction with your doctor.
  • Gives each family member his or her own personal record to help keep things organized.

Peace-of-mind is built right into the ActivePHR service

The most valuable feature you get with ActivePHR is access to the patented CareEngine® System, which constantly watches over all your health information and looks for opportunities for improved care. It watches for prescriptions and over-the-counter drugs that shouldn't be mixed. And it alerts you if there is a treatment that you're not getting but may be helpful to you or someone in your family. The system also alerts your doctor if the issue is something he or she should know about. It's a wonderful feeling to know ActivePHR and the CareEngine are keeping an eye on things.

So many great tools to help you manage your family's health

If you find it difficult to keep track of everybody's medical appointments and schedules, ActivePHR has a convenient calendar feature that can keep things organized and even send reminders. If you're trying to improve your health numbers, there's a handy tracker tool that logs your information and follows your progress. And if you really want to look for ways to improve your health, you can take the health assessment.

If you're like most people, you dread going to a new doctor because of all the forms that have to be completed. ActivePHR offers a handy new-patient intake form that you can print out and take with you, showing all your latest health and insurance information. You can also print out immunization records, which are great if your kids go to a new school or camp.

You can rest assured your information is safe and secure

Federal law strictly protects your health information and ensures that no unauthorized personnel can ever view or use it for decisions about your employment or your career advancement.
