UnitedHealthcare’s new tech tool helps provide social support to employees in need

Published Updated 2 Min Read

A new tech-driven tool from UnitedHealthcare will use predictive analytics to help support employees who may be experiencing social stressors and circumstances such as food insecurity or housing struggles.

The tool, which relies on de-identified claims data from UnitedHealthcare members, can identify workers that may be in need of additional support; call center advocates can then use a curated database of local resources to help employees access nutritious food, affordable housing or community support groups.
