HealthCompare Announces New Plans To Reach Health Insurance Consumer With New Media Outlets
PR Web |
HealthCompare targets health insurance consumers with their new media for education. As an insurance comparison site, they are nationally recognized for their compassion for shoppers. Their reputation for understanding began when visitors on their site were prompted to ask themselves certain probing questions regarding their health insurance needs.
The goal of these questions was to make the shopper aware of what their real needs were before shopping. Resulting in awareness for the consumer regarding their medical coverage necessities, their financial abilities, and the most effective policies available for them.
HealthCompare spurred visitors to ask themselves:
What are the consumers current health care needs? Do they currently require medication? Does the consumer have a pre-existing condition? Or are they seeking to start a family in the near future?
Does the financial state of the shopper allow for a lower deductible, thusly giving them a higher monthly premium? Or would having a high deductible (and therefore lower monthly premium) be more beneficial?
Is the consumer’s physician a factor? If they prefer to continue seeing their doctor of choice, HealthCompare helps them decide what policies allow that.
Are there any other health insurance options for the shopper, such as spouse or parent plan?
Once consumers get their quotes, HealthCompare then helps them narrow their decisions by prompting them to ask further questions, like:
How much will the policies being compared cost them from their pocket when considering deductibles, co-insurance, and co-pays?
What will the policies being compared offer in terms of maximum out-of-pocket expense?
Will the consumer’s office visits be covered?
Do any of the policies up for comparison offer maternity?
Is prescription drug coverage an option?
How much will the consumer pay for emergency services and ambulances?
Will the current primary physician and local hospitals be accepted under any of the policies being considered?
Health insurance costs are much more involved than mere premiums and buyers must carefully consider all out of pocket expenses to understand what their policies will ultimately cost them.
In continuing the goal of consumer education, HealthCompare developed infographics to convey industry hardships to the general public. As difficulty is inherent in the health insurance field, they understood this and chose to breakdown those complex topics into more digestible bits of information in the form of web graphics called infographics.
That’s why HealthCompare chose to release their own. They wanted consumers to be able to understand the current hardships surrounding the health insurance industry. The infographics released are:
Getting An Online Health Insurance Quote Made Easy - Designed to aid consumers in getting an effective medical policy quote
Instant Health Insurance Quotes May Not Be All They Seem - Illustrates the need for consumers to be wary when accepting insurance quotes

Yet HealthCompare doesn’t intend to stop there. They have announced that they will be release ebooks starting in July to help further educate consumers. Realizing the popularity of ereaders and the effect they could have on the lives of consumers, HealthCompare will be releasing ebooks on a variety of topics from surviving new parenthood to becoming an entrepreneur.
