Regence's Online 'Live Help' Gets Members Chatting
Date:9/11/2008

Popular feature offers easy answers for plan benefits, health tools

PORTLAND, Ore., Sept. 11 /PRNewswire/ -- Imagine a gabfest about health insurance benefits. Members logging onto myRegence.com find a "chat" with Live Help customer service specialists provides quick answers to benefit questions, and more.

Regence's one-on-one approach is centered on members' personal needs and improving their ability to navigate the rich resources at myRegence. This differs from other companies that use instant chat only to juggle simultaneous inquiries.

"We've had such positive feedback," said Dan Medin, Regence Director of Customer Service. "Live Help is so convenient for members. It's more relaxed, like two friends chatting."

During the initial rollout, more than 20,000 Live Help chats occurred as members discovered the feature while visiting myRegence.com. That number is expected to climb steeply since rollout was completed in August in all Regence markets: Idaho, Oregon, Washington and Utah.

The rollout uncovered some customer niches better-served by Live Help than by phone: hearing impaired members prefer it, and members who are traveling find it a convenient way to check coverage.

As with phone-in customer service, the most frequently asked questions pertain to benefit coverage details. A bonus feature uncovered in the rollout is the opportunity to get members better acquainted with myRegence.com.

"Integrating Live Help into myRegence.com lets our customer service specialists give personalized tours," said Torben Nielsen, Regence Director of Consumer-Directed Health Systems. "We get to navigate members to the content they care about, whether that's an informational sleep podcast or building a Personal Health Record or comparing treatments or medications."

Live Help is the newest feature of the award-winning myRegence.com Web site:
