BROOKFIELD, Wis., March 20, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Connecture (OTCQX:CNXR), a provider of web-based information systems used to create health insurance marketplaces, announced today that they have entered into a multi-year contract with Molina Healthcare, Inc. (NYSE:MOH) to launch digital quoting, shopping and enrollment tools for Molina’s Medicare business, specifically their Medicare Advantage products, which includes their Dual Eligible Special Needs Plans (D-SNP). Connecture’s portal technology, which Molina has already implemented in 12 of the states they serve, supports the carrier’s primary sales channels: brokers, call center agents and their direct-to-consumer website.
Based in Long Beach, California, Molina Healthcare is a FORTUNE 500 company that provides managed health care services under the Medicaid and Medicare programs and through the state insurance marketplaces. The new partnership with Connecture helps Molina provide more consumers with an improved personalized shopping and enrollment experience online. Connecture’s smart technology also enables their call center agents and broker teams to increase efficiency and performance with web-based and mobile tools that support the end-to-end sales process, including lead qualification, quoting and data insights.
“When we were originally looking for a partner to help expand our Medicare channels, Connecture’s name quickly rose to the top of the list,” said Britt Travis, Molina Healthcare’s VP of Medicare Sales. “Their industry and regulatory expertise coupled with a unique combination of tech innovation and data-informed marketing strategies made them an ideal partner for Molina.”
“Molina’s dedication to creating exceptional member and broker experiences is paramount to their success in the Medicare space,” said Connecture President and CEO Jeff Surges. “Their comprehensive approach hits all the right notes, and we look forward to helping them improve their customers’ experience, both in terms of enrollments and renewals.”
For almost 15 years now, Connecture has been a leader in the Medicare sector, with partners that include national carriers, brokers and CMS. Currently, over two-thirds of all Medicare Advantage & Part D electronic enrollments are facilitated by Connecture’s technology, making it the most widely used Medicare decision-support technology available.
