KLAS Spotlight Report Finds Carrot Health Customers Highly Satisfied Overall, Happy With Scalability, Tangible Outcomes


Minneapolis, MN, Sept. 21, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NewMediaWire--In a newly published KLAS® Research Spotlight Report, 100% of Carrot Health customers interviewed said they were satisfied or highly satisfied with the Carrot MarketView® software and analytics platform, and would both recommend and purchase it again. The report, “Carrot Health: Using Analytics to Drive Outcomes in SDOH,” is based on detailed feedback from Carrot Health customers in the payer and health plan space on how well the company’s social determinants of health (SDoH) insights help them drive outcomes – delivering a more targeted level of care to their patient populations.

Carrot Health was recognized for living up to expectations, having a responsive and helpful staff, and helping customers realize tangible outcomes. Customers lauded MarketView’s scalability and performance in key areas, grading both its support of integration goals and executive involvement as A-. The interviewees validated key features of the platform, including providing a complete view of consumers and members, data visualization, and predictive modeling.

“We have been able to reduce our marketing budget by about 30%, and we can still hit our sales goal by using tactics that Carrot Health brought to the table. The system allows us to not spend wasted marketing efforts on people who are unlikely to select our product. We understand which markets are the hottest and which brokers are the best. We are able to send personalized information to people about the events that are close to them because we know those people will be more likely to convert. The Carrot Health system really helps us drill into data analytics,” said one vice president of customer service interviewed for the report.

The report states: “Carrot Health provides key data analytics for providers and payers to better acquire new patients & members and evaluate population/patient risk. Their abilities regarding Medicare Advantage, Medicare Star ratings, population risk, and service-cost analysis are foundational to supporting ACO environments. Carrot Health’s proprietary predictive models and social risk group algorithm are unique functions that further differentiate their services. Clients are seeing expected outcomes.”

In addition to marketing cost savings, the expected outcomes achieved by Carrot Health customers included improved analytics and best practices and increased lead volume. An unexpected, yet welcome, outcome was helpful COVID-19 support.

“Our mission is to leverage SDoH data to provide our customers with a comprehensive picture of their members, enabling them to employ the most effective strategies for identifying and closing gaps in care while providing more personalized experiences, better care delivery, improved outcomes, and lower costs. We are pleased that our customers have validated our work through their discussions with KLAS, and look forward to continuing to show exactly why SDoH is a powerful and vital aspect of any provider or payer strategy,” said Kurt Waltenbaugh, CEO of Carrot Health.
