I think there is as Oracle

{{00:00:26}}
Health Insurance is a set

{{00:00:28}}
of, cloud services or SaaS

{{00:00:30}}
services that we provide

{{00:00:32}}
to modernize the core

{{00:00:33}}
administrative processing

{{00:00:35}}
systems for the health funds.

{{00:00:37}}
And, one of the key,

{{00:00:40}}
benefits of having, a digital

{{00:00:43}}
core is the flexibility

{{00:00:45}}
that the system offers

{{00:00:46}}
in configuring, you know,

{{00:00:48}}
new kind of products,

{{00:00:49}}
new kind of benefits.

{{00:00:51}}
And, and bringing to

{{00:00:52}}
market, innovative products.

{{00:00:55}}
And, the second part being,

{{00:00:57}}
a SaaS application, it's,

{{00:01:00}}
it's completely secure

{{00:01:02}}
and it's compliant with

{{00:01:04}}
all the regulatory, asks.

{{00:01:06}}
So reducing your investment

{{00:01:08}}
or the health funds investment

{{00:01:10}}
into, into those areas.

{{00:01:13}}
The third thing is

{{00:01:14}}
really just, scale.

{{00:01:15}}
So with SaaS applications,

{{00:01:18}}
We can scale, pretty quickly

{{00:01:20}}
from just 5,000 members to,

{{00:01:23}}
you know, millions of members.

{{00:01:25}}
And we get that scale because

{{00:01:27}}
of our SaaS infrastructure.

{{00:01:29}}
As a SaaS application,

{{00:01:31}}
you also get scale.

{{00:01:32}}
What that means is we can

{{00:01:34}}
support members from 5,000

{{00:01:36}}
to millions of members

{{00:01:38}}
in the same platform.

{{00:01:39}}
And so a health plan as

{{00:01:41}}
they grow doesn't need to

{{00:01:42}}
worry about kind of scale.

{{00:01:44}}
You know, we, we, we

{{00:01:46}}
started the program

{{00:01:47}}
right before Covid, hit.

{{00:01:49}}
So there were some significant

{{00:01:51}}
challenges with respect

{{00:01:52}}
to, you know, and doing

{{00:01:54}}
a transformative program

{{00:01:55}}
while kind of complying

{{00:01:56}}
with the covid requirements.

{{00:01:59}}
Having said that, I think one

{{00:02:00}}
of the things that we found

{{00:02:02}}
as we engaged with the program

{{00:02:04}}
is how complex the Australian

{{00:02:06}}
health, insurance environment

{{00:02:09}}
is in terms of automation.

{{00:02:12}}
In terms of regulatory

{{00:02:13}}
demands and asks.

{{00:02:14}}
So they're really kind

{{00:02:16}}
of features that are core

{{00:02:17}}
to the Australian health

{{00:02:18}}
insurance environment,

{{00:02:19}}
like a transfer gateway,

{{00:02:20}}
like rebate, calculations,

{{00:02:23}}
like lifetime covers, very

{{00:02:25}}
specific to the market.

{{00:02:27}}
And those took a while for us

{{00:02:30}}
to kind of really, understand

{{00:02:32}}
and design in a way that it

{{00:02:35}}
is maintainable for future.

{{00:02:36}}
So that was one of the, the,

{{00:02:38}}
the big challenges up front,

{{00:02:40}}
which is the enormity of

{{00:02:41}}
the amount of localization.

{{00:02:43}}
Having said that, I'm, I'm

{{00:02:45}}
happy to note we've done

{{00:02:46}}
all of that in the product,

{{00:02:48}}
and so that localization is

{{00:02:50}}
now available for all other

{{00:02:52}}
funds, who joined the Oracle

{{00:02:54}}
Health insurance platform.

{{00:02:55}}
Overall, the key is

{{00:02:57}}
to kind of create your

{{00:02:59}}
own digital pathways.

{{00:03:00}}
So all the way from

{{00:03:02}}
your digital front ends,

{{00:03:04}}
whether it's a mobile

{{00:03:05}}
front end or a portal

{{00:03:07}}
into all the core systems.

{{00:03:09}}
Everything is connected now,

{{00:03:10}}
so there are no kind of, you

{{00:03:13}}
know, breaks in the process.

{{00:03:14}}
So you can implement seamless

{{00:03:17}}
end-to-end digital processes

{{00:03:19}}
that greatly transform

{{00:03:21}}
member experience overall.

{{00:03:23}}
And the second really

{{00:03:25}}
is the security.

{{00:03:26}}
So as a SaaS platform, we're

{{00:03:29}}
highly secure and that, that

{{00:03:32}}
that gives, health funds

{{00:03:35}}
a lot of comfort that, you

{{00:03:37}}
know, our platform will not

{{00:03:38}}
be and cannot be hacked.

{{00:03:40}}
Cuz that's the thing

{{00:03:41}}
that is, keeping a lot

{{00:03:43}}
of CEOs awake these days.

{{00:03:45}}
When, when it comes to

{{00:03:46}}
regulatory, aspects, one

{{00:03:49}}
thing is for, for sure it

{{00:03:51}}
is gonna keep happening

{{00:03:53}}
and this is a very highly

{{00:03:54}}
regulated environment.

{{00:03:56}}
So, expect more

{{00:03:58}}
regulations, expect more

{{00:03:59}}
changes, more demands.

{{00:04:02}}
What a health plan can

{{00:04:03}}
do to, to really protect

{{00:04:05}}
themselves is to invest in

{{00:04:07}}
a core system that is easy

{{00:04:09}}
to adapt, easy to kind of

{{00:04:11}}
implement these changes.

{{00:04:13}}
For instance, when we

{{00:04:14}}
implemented the, the,

{{00:04:16}}
age-based discount, we

{{00:04:18}}
did it in a way that it

{{00:04:20}}
simply table entry to

{{00:04:21}}
change the discounts if

{{00:04:23}}
things change tomorrow.

{{00:04:24}}
So I think what you want to

{{00:04:26}}
do is to protect yourself

{{00:04:27}}
by investing in a flexible

{{00:04:29}}
core platform, cuz regulatory

{{00:04:31}}
changes are bound to happen.

{{00:04:34}}
Members and patients, they

{{00:04:36}}
all want personalized,

{{00:04:38}}
healthcare, right?

{{00:04:39}}
So, the way to offer

{{00:04:42}}
personalized healthcare

{{00:04:44}}
is to make sure that,

{{00:04:45}}
you have the right information

{{00:04:47}}
available and implement

{{00:04:49}}
tools and technologies that

{{00:04:50}}
allow us to deliver that

{{00:04:52}}
personalized healthcare.

{{00:04:53}}
I'll give you an example of

{{00:04:54}}
what we're doing in the US:

{{00:04:56}}
we have incorporated solution

{{00:04:58}}
called precision navigation.

{{00:05:01}}
What that means is if you need

{{00:05:02}}
a see a specialist, if you

{{00:05:04}}
want to, you know, let's say,

{{00:05:06}}
want to go see someone for,

{{00:05:07}}
for back pain or a orthopedic

{{00:05:10}}
surgery, or in, in the, in

{{00:05:12}}
most, cases you would just

{{00:05:14}}
look at who's around or who

{{00:05:16}}
your GP refers, and pick

{{00:05:18}}
kind of a, a random physician

{{00:05:20}}
or random specialist.

{{00:05:22}}
With precision navigation

{{00:05:24}}
it takes all of the data

{{00:05:25}}
points available on you as

{{00:05:27}}
a person, and matches with

{{00:05:30}}
all the providers available

{{00:05:32}}
and their outcomes based on

{{00:05:33}}
their medical encounters,

{{00:05:35}}
and then recommends a, a

{{00:05:37}}
right provider for you.

{{00:05:39}}
We found that that particular

{{00:05:40}}
technique actually improves

{{00:05:42}}
outcomes for our members.
