The enhanced version of Plan Compare will provide more robust and detailed information for individual consumers shopping for Medicare plans and will allow brokers and call centers to better brand and personalize their enrollment websites. The new version launches today. Consistent with CMS marketing guidelines client sites will go into production on October 1, 2010. With a range of Medicare plan options available for Medicare Advantage, Medicare Supplemental, and Medicare Prescription Drug Coverage, choosing the best and most cost effective plan can be a challenge. DestinationRx’s Plan Compare tools, commercially licensed technology for consumers or professionals to select and enroll in Medicare plans, simplify the selection and enrollment process. In addition Plan Compare Version 3.2 now includes new features for Medigap plans: l Comprehensive “Plan Details” section l Improved functionality for side-by-side comparisons l More detailed information about plan differentiations, such as high deductible plans, spouse rates, and guaranteed issues l An enhanced Medicare Supplemental presentation to help seniors select and enroll in Medigap plans Furthermore, DestinationRx has redesigned the “Save More Money” page, which allows consumers to see the potential savings of switching to a generic drug or using a mail order service—in just one click. Using this feature, users shopping for plans can benefit from the DestinationRx drug comparison technology that saved Americans $53 million in 2009. “As we move forward with our Medicare plan comparison tools, we are committed to responding to the growing needs of our users,” said Toby Rogers, Executive Vice President for DestinationRx. “The new features significantly strengthen our plan comparison technology, providing the information necessary for users to select and enroll in the plan that is most affordable and best for their individual needs.” The Individual Plan Compare tool, as well as the updated Professional Plan Compare tool for brokers and call centers, not only power plan comparison data and online enrollment applications, but also include additional opportunities for branding and personalization. Both tools feature a new client-facing Online Configuration Manager to improve the process for seamless integration into third-party websites. The Online Configuration Manager tool allows clients to: l Make text and image changes to their site and see the changes in real time l Preview changes before saving l Publish changes to their live sites on their schedule l Update plan data quickly in an easy to use interface “Third parties are now able to easily update much of the configurations themselves, which allows health plans to provide a more tailored member experience,” said Rogers. “This new process will save time and hassle with its straightforward and streamlined approach to website integration.” About DestinationRx Since its inception in 1999, DestinationRx has grown from a pioneer in consumer drug comparison and purchasing to a recognized health plan and drug comparison industry leader.
