Let’s Build Your Solution

Overview

Key Metrics & Impact

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

Key Metrics & Impact
01

Problem

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.

Problem
02

Challenge

The platform needed to:



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
