ESSENTIAL RESPONSIBILITIES
  • Integrated product strategy. Working across functions, develop a clear multi-year product strategy across existing segments (Federal Market, National Accounts, large regional, small group, ACA, and provider partnership products) and new geographies, that take into account and integrate all elements of product design (benefit design, networks, medical management, reimbursement design, ancillary benefits, customer service features, etc.). The product strategy is expected to be grounded in underlying market trends, the different needs of different market segments and feedback from customers and sales, and Highmark's enterprise strategy. For each market segment, the strategy should clearly articulate Highmark's differentiated value proposition and approach to driving greater customer value relative to local and national competitors and serve as the starting point for the development of a robust portfolio of products offerings. This includes product offerings that integrate Highmark's medical, dental, vision, and stop loss capabilities, as well as the development of new integrated provider product designs that move towards greater risk-sharing and population health management.
  • Drive product innovation. Actively monitor developments in the market and pilot, test, evaluate, and implement new product innovations. This could range from new benefit design structures to enhanced member communications around site of care recommendations to piloting new medical technologies relevant to specific market segment or customer needs, and will require an understanding of external market trends, innovations from other health plans, and new vendors and start-ups. Implementing this innovation will likely require managing any vendors participating in the delivery of products, programs or services.

Direct oversight of the team responsible for working collaboratively with various organizational stakeholders on the delivery of the product strategic roadmap through the development, maintenance, and implementation of a robust portfolio of products, which meet the needs of different market segments.

Understand and share what worked well and what didn't work well based on actual market experience, identify opportunities for improving specific product performance, and incorporate findings into the multi-year product strategy.
  • Product capability management. Based on the evolution of the product portfolio, developing a detailed multi-year roadmap of the support supporting capabilities the enterprise needs to deliver (e.g., benefits, network designs, medical management programs, new customer service capabilities, supporting marketing, etc.) our Living Health strategy.
