Health plans have been developing a variety of new products without an overall
portfolio strategy that (1) maximizes market trends, (2) drives toward a strategic
vision and (3) positions the “Right Products for the Right Markets.”
Trends that health plans face in this environment include:
The non-group product market is increasing
The number of products being sold is increasing
Competition is increasing and opportunities for differentiation decreasing
Effective Product Portfolio Management and Strategy is becoming a key management issue
The portfolio of products and
their delivery to the marketplace impacts the entire operation of a health plan.
If the products are disorganized, they will have a
negative impact on the future market positioning, operations, enrollment and financial
standing of the health plan.
