Video transcript

Soft inspirational music plays. A blue u-shaped logo appears against a white background.

The logo disappears, leaving behind text.

ON SCREEN TEXT: Advocate4Me®

An animation shows two people riding a hot air balloon. One wears a headset and points out the front of the balloon while a woman sits in the back. The balloon rises over a mountain.

NARRATOR: Every health journey is simpler with the help of a guide. Someone to depend on when things come up, or even before.

A phone buzzes on a desk and a hand picks it up. A speech bubble appears from an advocate speaking on a headset. Another speech bubble appears pointing away with three dots in it.

NARRATOR: No matter why a member reaches out, they’ll connect with an experienced, compassionate advocate who has a snapshot view of the member’s healthcare experience in their dashboard.

The advocate’s computer monitor shows a line graph with dots on it. One turns orange as the cursor moves toward it. A lightbulb blinks on over the advocate’s head. The lightbulb turns into the hot air balloon which flies over a roped-off tip of a mountain.

NARRATOR: If the advocate sees an opportunity for the member, they can recommend a care path and resources, like a wellness program or clinical program designed to help manage a chronic condition.
