What can health plans do for consumers?
Healthcare is a “social” service:
it revolves around people, their lives and their communities.

How are health plans using social today?
• Out of the top 100 health plans
ranked by EveryMove’s 2014
survey,
– 97 use both Twitter and LinkedIn
– 87 are on Facebook
– 81 are on YouTube
• Even something as socially
simple as sending a text message
can have a tremendous impact!

Social for greater good: American Red Cross
Approach Video
This is the first social
media command
center devoted to
humanitarian relief
and demonstrates
the power social
media can lend
during emergency
and crisis situations.
Benefits
Dell was brought in to construct the project —
modeling it after their own Social Media Listening
Command Center, used to track brand sentiment
and chatter. We consulted on the space
configuration, build and helped the American Red
Cross establish processes for the successful
training and operation of their command center.
• Improved data sourcing and identification of trends
in disaster-affected areas
• Improved ability to anticipate and respond to the
public’s needs
• Increased ability to quickly connect people with the
resources they need during a disaster — such as
food, water, shelter or even emotional support.

Challenge
The American Red Cross has been a leader in
the social media space for some time, but
looked to Dell for help scaling their social
media operations during major disasters. As an
organization with worldwide exposure and
such a direct impact on human life, they
needed a scaling solution that would support
their efforts.

Key observations
We have observed “three main mistakes” that companies
make when trying to use social platforms:
Not engaging
Businesses need to
engage with their
target audience in
the social places
those users are.
Don’t have a “if you
build it, they will
come” attitude.
Missing analytics
Many businesses
don’t understand
and utilize the
richness of the
analytics and the
customer data a
business can get by
mining social media
sites.
Failure to start
Biggest error is not
getting started.
Social media
engagement is an
imperative: if you’re
not in these
conversations they’re
happening without
you.

9.4% 29.1% 35.4% 23.6% 2.4%
Decentralized
No one department
manages or
coordinates; efforts
bubble up from the
edges of the
company
Centralized
One department (like
Corp Communications)
manages all social
activities.
Hub and Spoke
A cross-functional
team sites in a
centralized position
and helps various
nodes such as
business units.
Multiple Hub and Spoke
(“Dandelion”)
Similar to Hub and Spoke
but applicable to
multinational companies
where “companies within
companies” act nearly
autonomously from each
other under a common
brand.
Holistic
Everyone in the
company uses social
media safety and
consistently across
all organization.
At a minimum:
• Social Media Policy
• Social Media Governance Structure
• Trained People who are Able to Act on Organization’s Behalf
• Clear Escalation Points for Social Media
Organize
for
success

Engagement exercise: simple tweet break-down
Consumer tweeted directly
@ ACAP – they’re asking for
a response
By using the #Medicaid
hashtag, the tweet has
been “tagged,” and will
be part of search
results for anyone else
looking for Medicaid
information
By using the #Florida
hashtag, the tweet has
been “tagged,” and will
be part of search
results for anyone else
looking for Florida
information
Twitter: micro-blogging platform
limited to 140 characters per post

Advanced engagement exercise: context analysis
ACAP response requested
Searchable #Medicaid tagSearchable #Florida tag
Consumer is interested in female health
concerns, including pregnancy, and will
likely also be interested in
CHIP/pediatric care
Consumer seems to be looking
for eligibility criteria and
enrollment information
Consumer looking for
info specific to state of
Florida; you know which
programs are applicable
Consumer seeking info on
Medicaid, tells you about
demographics and opens door for
engagement on related programs
