Plavno developed an embedded virtual care platform for a US health insurance product, enabling secure member consultations, care navigation, and connected communication workflows directly inside the platform.
Overview
This case reflects Plavno’s role as a specialized module development partner inside a broader healthcare insurance ecosystem. The client’s core platform already existed, but it needed a native communication layer for virtual member consultations, care coordination, and navigation support. Plavno delivered a secure in-platform communication solution that enabled members, care coordinators, and healthcare professionals to connect directly inside the insurance product without relying on disconnected third-party meeting tools.
Better continuity across member consultations, support, and care navigation workflows
Reduced reliance on external communication platforms
Stronger member experience inside the health insurance product
Improved control over virtual care and support workflows
Higher product value through embedded communication capabilities

Many health insurance and member services platforms support eligibility, benefits, care coordination, and case management, but still depend on external tools for virtual communication.
Common challenges included:
Fragmented member experience across separate platforms
Context switching between payer workflows and third-party video tools
Weaker control over consultation and support experiences
Difficulty embedding communication into core member workflows
Limited product ownership over virtual care functionality
The client needed a secure, payer-native virtual care layer that could support member consultations and care navigation without forcing users outside the platform.

The platform needed to:
Support secure in-platform video sessions for members and care teams
Fit naturally into existing insurance and navigation workflows
Reduce reliance on external meeting products
Provide a stable communication experience inside the platform
Support different roles such as members, care coordinators, case managers, and healthcare staff
Remain extensible for future AI-assisted member support features
There were also important constraints:
The communication experience had to feel native to the insurance platform
The module needed to work inside an existing product ecosystem
Sessions had to align with care navigation and support processes, not generic meeting logic
The system had to improve member engagement while preserving workflow continuity

Solution
A fully native, role-based communication layer that unifies video consultations, care navigation, member support, and payer workflow integration within a single health insurance ecosystem—designed for extensibility and future AI-driven engagement capabilities.
Secure in-platform communication workflows
Audio and video support for consultations and navigation sessions
Reduced dependence on third-party communication tools
Native member consultation experience inside the platform
Extensible architecture for future AI-powered support scenarios
Start from the Member Journey:The member moves from eligibility, support, or care navigation flows into a virtual consultation path inside the health insurance platform.
Launch the Secure Session:The embedded communication layer starts the interaction directly inside the product.
Conduct the Consultation or Navigation Session: Members and support teams communicate through the in-platform experience without leaving the system.
Continue the Care Workflow: After the session, the broader platform handles follow-up steps, support workflows, and care coordination actions.
Suitable for US health insurance and payer platforms
Supports secure embedded communication without product fragmentation
Improves continuity across consultation, support, and care navigation workflows
Works across care coordinators, support teams, and member engagement scenarios
Scalable for broader virtual care and payer-side service expansion
Architecture Overview
Communication Layer:The platform handles embedded audio and video communication for healthcare insurance and member-support workflows.
Session Management Layer: Consultation and navigation sessions are managed inside payer workflows rather than through external meeting logic.
Workflow Integration Layer: Eligibility, support, case handling, and care coordination remain connected to the communication layer.
Role & Access Layer: The platform respects insurance-product roles including members, care coordinators, and provider-facing users.
Extension Layer: The communication architecture can support future AI-assisted member support, triage, and engagement features.
Product Integration Layer: The solution works inside the broader payer platform without replacing the core system.
