Pursuant Health's innovative approach to population health management enables health plans to improve quality, increase compliance and produce better outcomes. This is achieved through the Company's patent-pending platform that couples principles of behavioral economics with real-time incentives and adaptive logic to drive sustainable member engagement. By utilizing multi-channel communication strategies, convenient care settings and real-time incentive management capabilities, Pursuant Health engages a wide range of at-risk, historically hard-to-reach members.
