Loneliness and social isolation are driving higher costs, lower engagement, and worse outcomes across Medicare Advantage populations.

In this research study, a national Medicare Advantage plan partnered with Talkspace Community to address social health through peer support, coaching, and care navigation.

The results demonstrated:

  • 5% reduction in total cost of care
  • 10% reduction in inpatient utilization
  • 21% reduction in loneliness within 90 days
  • 25% behavioral health referral conversion rate
  • Sustained engagement through 12 months
