Health Dialog employs licensed health coaches to provide population health management services. The company uses its clinical knowledge, plus a variety of tools and resources, to support the needs of all populations in order to evaluate and then guide members to an improved health. [7] [8]
Health Dialog's Pathways Engine, uses predictive analytics and machine learning to identify opportunities for health management and cost reduction. The company uses analytics to combine clinical and non-clinical data in order to capture a number of factors that can influence health status and healthcare decisions. This ranges from claims, health risk assessment responses and biometric values to census information, consumer data assets (to assess purchasing capabilities and behaviors), social determinants of health (SDOH), household composition, health attitudes and communication preferences.
