NEW YORK, Dec. 13, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MagnaCare, a leader in health plan management, network rental, medical management, and casualty solutions today announced that its MyCreateHealth mobile app has been named a Silver winner in the App of the Year – Enterprise and SMB category in the 9th annual Best in Biz Awards and has received merit recognition for its mobile app in the Mobile Digital Health Resources category for the Digital Health Awards.
The vendor agnostic MyCreateHealth app, which is part of the Create technology suite, helps Labor, Public Sector, and Commercial plan sponsors support members and boost engagement, since the tool not only supports MagnaCare’s robust PPO and tiered networks and its innovative direct provider contracting network Create, but can also integrate with any of the plan sponsor’s chosen carriers and health benefits vendors.
When health plan members download the MyCreateHealth app, they enjoy on-the-go access to complete plan and benefits information, real-time claims status, receipt uploads to speed reimbursement, and GPS-enabled search for in-network providers. Meanwhile, plan sponsors whose members use the MyCreateHealth mobile app report dramatic reductions in cumbersome paperwork and time spent fielding routine member questions and note improved ease of communication with members throughout the plan year.
“From the outset, our aim was to make the MyCreateHealth app and the entire Create tech platform highly flexible,” said Arun Bhatia, MagnaCare’s Chief Information Officer. “The result is an all-in-one benefits administration hub that integrates with any insurance carrier, ancillary benefits vendor, payroll platform, or point solution. These distinctions from Best in Biz and The Digital Health Awards further validate the exceptional utility of our tech.”
Michelle Zettergren, MagnaCare’s President of Labor and Chief Sales & Marketing Officer adds, “These back-to-back recognitions echo the overwhelmingly positive feedback from our clients. By giving members on-the-go, real-time access to plan information and claims status, plus enabling plans sponsors to directly message their membership via their smartphones, the MyCreateHealth app is helping transform the way groups interact with and communicate about benefits and beyond.”
