Selling to Health Plans from the Digital Health Growth Summit The #HCBiz Show!

    • Business

This podcast features the Selling to Health Plans panel discussion at the Digital Health Growth Summit, moderated by our very own Shahid Shah, with panelists Vijay Bhatt, Deputy CTO, Harvard Pilgrim Health Care, and Bill Friedman, Vice President of Sales, Zipari.
The panel covers some of the most important digital health technologies that health plans are interested in and how digital health startups can get health plan executives to buy the technologies they’re building. One of my favorite points is that you’ve got to de-risk the decision to buy:
 
Start small and build-up Pilots are not bad when done right Show the IT department that you won’t be a pain in their neck Show the finance department a transparent roadmap of the true cost of ownership from implementation thru tangible ROI.  
Some great advice for anyone trying to sell in healthcare.
 
This panel discussion complements several recent episodes:
 
Episode 145: How Payers Can Master Core Administrative Transactions and Deliver a World-class Experience to their Members and Providers w/ Steve Krupa Episode 148: Partnering with Payers w/ Andrew-Adrian Karlin of Highmark Episode 150: How to Turn the Growth Engine on in your Digital Health Startup with Bryan Loomis – one of the organizers of this event Episode 151: Shifting Healthcare’s Culture Toward Openness and Experimentation with Red Hat’s Paul Jones where we talk about his experience as a buyer at a health plan and how that helps him in his new role as a seller.  
We focus on selling a lot because you may have the best solution in the world, but nothing happens until someone sells something.
