At the soul: Our customer experience (CX) mission to improve customer expectations and perceptions of relationships, connections, and touchpoints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s a mission that teams across Blue KC contribute to and the Customer Experience Practice team and Customer Experience Council doggedly drive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Together, these groups relentlessly ask four big questions every day:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Are we easy to work with?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are we effective at meeting member needs?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are we a company members can trust?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Would members recommend us to others?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>In a series of articles that exposes how Blue KC actively listens, measures, and improves CX, we\u2019ll show you how we prioritize our mission to put customers at the heart of everything we do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this series we\u2019ll look at:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Voice of the Customer<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Journey Teams<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Member Escalation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Personalized Services<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Empathy Immersion<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Voice of the customer<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>What if we could gather pain points from our customers, measure what they tell us, and improve their experiences based on what we\u2019ve learned? What if we could do this \u2013 quite literally \u2013 by collecting and analyzing the words they say to us?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s how the Voice of the Customer (VOC) initiative started back in 2018. Today it features a sophisticated tool that gathers 100% of what customers tell us \u2013 verbatim \u2013 through contact center phone calls, emails, social media posts, and transactional and relationship surveys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What\u2019s in a word?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWords are singularly the most powerful force available to humanity,\u201d said scientist, author, and speaker Dr. Hyder Zahed in a 2014 Huffington Post article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We couldn\u2019t agree more. The words our customers share with us matter &#8212; words about their Blue KC experiences, issues, concerns, and appreciation.

Since 2021, 44 improvement workstreams have been implemented, resulting in:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>8% year-over-year improvement in use of the Blue KC member portal<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>9% improvement in member understanding and use of claims<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>14% improvement in locating forms<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>6% improvement in accessing and reading EOBs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, the VOC initiative has played a key role in achieving a 74%* Blue KC Customer Effort Score, compared to a 66% industry average**. The score tracks how customers respond to \u201cHow easy is it to work with Blue KC?\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Catalyst for change<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Through VOC, \u201cthe Customer Experience Practice team became a catalyst for change,\u201d said Mary Willett, Director, Customer Experience Practice Management.\u201c It rallied the organization to drive change and collectively establish a complaint-handling practice that would be managed in a manner that aligned with our Blue KC core values and measured accountability and performance.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to those noted above, the initiative has activated improvements that will ensure positive experiences in the future, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Implementing new and revising existing medical procedures<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Creating enhanced member support materials and resources<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Improving international medical claims<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Providing internal education and support materials for complex benefits<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Improving member benefit documents<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>VOC also has had a ripple effect internally, prompting Solve for X, a program that harnesses the voices of employees to enhance VOC. Since 2022, Solve for X has received 180 improvement recommendations from employees; nearly 40% have been implemented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>To the future and beyond<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We now have years of data from customer interactions that are informing the future of CX at Blue KC. It is being used to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Communicate issues to areas that can solve them<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Improve CX by lending expertise to systemic issues and options for improvement<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Prioritize improvement efforts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Measure effectivenes of solutions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Predict impact and severity of issues if improvements aren\u2019t pursued<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, the future of CX looks bright at Blue KC.
