Priyanka Rajkumar heads the Solutions and SCIOXpert Services divisions from Chennai. Her core expertise is in Product Management, Technology and Analytics.M obile devices have become a lifeline to important infor-mation for most of us. On a daily basis we are notified about text messages from friends or family, breaking news, developing weather conditions, sales or coupons from stores, or just about anything else of interest. We like having that infor-mation pushed to us because it's convenient ­ the information is right in our pockets or purses ­ and it's relevant to our lives. Now it's time for health insurers, doctors, employers, governments and others to be-gin using this same delivery method to help patients/members improve their health out-comes. By using next-generation analytics to determine which patients/members need a little extra information or a friendly remind-er, and pushing alerts out to their phones, or-ganizations can have a significant impact on their health on a regular basis. Ending information overloadIt's not that the information being deliv-ered is any different than patients/members might receive in a doctor's office. The key is the way it's shared with them. During an appointment there is often not enough time to convey all of the information expert opinionBy Arun Rangamani, SVP & BU Head and Priyanka Rajkumar, Senior Director, Analytics Center of Excellence, SCIO Health Analytics
