This presentation is a continuation of the great work
spearheaded by the Center for Talent Innovation, as part of
their Power of the Purse report [ 2014 ].
Both men & women are Health Activators [ Not all caregivers are female ]
Health Activators cross-generations
[ Including many Millennials ]
Health Activators make decisions for more than immediate family [ Not just their spouse and children ]
Health Activators
Health Activators challenge some common stereotypes
11
Caregivers are not always spouses and
children; sometimes they are friends
(who may be closer than family). I
found little support available for non-
immediate-family-member caregivers.

Globally Health Activators make decisions for their spouses, children, parents, other family and loved ones

Who Health Activator Cares For
Industry needs to recognize that Health Activators don’t differentiate between ‘Health’ and ‘Wellness’
14
Physically Fit Happy Well Rested
Free of Illness Free of Stress
Health is more than just being free of illness…
I view health as overall wellness including
general/medical health, emotional health,
physical health, mental health. I consider
it whole-health. A weak mental health and
strong bodily health can be as life-threatening
as a disease. I am convinced that a person
with weak bodily health and strong emotional
health can extend their life by attitude alone.
~Gen X

And because of the need for knowledge, Health Activators are not always confident in the decisions they make for themselves and their loved ones

I feel pressure to make the right choice. Sometimes I’m
confused and anxious I am making the right healthcare choice.
~Gen X
I would like to have more information. Electronic health records
and the health system portals are a great beginning but they do
not give me enough detail to do more research on my own.
~Millennial
“ ” “ ”
Being a Health Activator is both challenging and rewarding
20
Being a decision maker is a big
responsibility, but also one that is
rewarding when you can see that you have
helped someone get good care. But I won’t
say that it is not somewhat of a burden in
the moment when you aren’t sure of what
needs to be done to help a loved one.
~Millennial
Like any caregiver, I felt
overwhelmed, exhausted to the
bone, terrified and very alone.
~Baby Boomer
Frustrated. Rarely able to fix problems with
a single call. Shouldn’t be so complicated or
taxing for caregivers.
~Gen X
I foresee this feeling stressful in the
future as an only child trying to make the
right decisions for my parents and not
having someone else in my family help
with the decision making process.
~Millennial
Being the decision maker can make
me feel impatient, at times, due to the
challenge of obtaining information.
~Gen X
Where do I find the time?!! Yet, I wouldn’t
trust this to anyone else.
~Gen X

Each younger generation of Health Activators are distancing themselves a little more from having a trusted HCP and pharmacist

How Can Industry Communicate With The Important Millennial Health Activator?
23
Health Activators are a core consumer
segment for the healthcare industry
23
They set the health and wellness
agenda for themselves and others,
choose treatments, and hire and
fire physicians, pharmacists and
insurance providers
24
By communicating health and wellness information to all
generations…especially Millennials… industry can bring trusted information and
confidence to the complex and aging patient population
25
This communication needs to be crafted with the unique needs of Millennials in mind

Source: http://thehealthcareblog.com/blog/2014/03/18/what-do-millennials-want-from-the-healthcare-system/
According to a Pew Research Report | 2014
Millennials are:
Independent and skeptical Want a health care system that’s holistic and widely accepted
Worry about money, the future and think economic stability should come before marriage and family life
Lack knowledge about the healthcare system or believe it to be flawed
Dependent on technology and social media
Want a health care system that’s simple, sensible, accessible
See a ‘sick care’ system rather than a ‘health care system
Compared to other generations, millennials prefer retail and urgent care clinics, and they visit primary care physicians less.

Give others their opinions on health & wellness matters
Need more credible, self-directed information
Trust and use non-traditional resources
27
Summary
1 Reaching beyond the patient to Health Activators who are influencing decisions that span genders and generations
3 Providing more knowledge via non-traditional channels to help Health Activators make confident and well informed decisions
2 Addressing both Health and Wellness in the many decisions that are made for themselves and others
Communicating with today’s complex aging population means we have to consider:
4 Making sure that any Patient Experience mapping takes a 360° degree look to make sure we are not missing the influence of Health Activators on the Journey
