Impact of Collaboration
Blue KC has long been a leader in industry-care and the investment in the Wellframe technology marks the future of medical care.

By engaging members in these programs, Wellframe facilitates high touch, sustained, and supportive relationships between members and their care team through secure mobile messaging.

“One of our biggest goals is to make it easier for our members to get the care they need when they need it,” said Raelene Knolla, Vice President of Population Health for Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas City. “We believe the ability for our nurses to interact directly with members digitally through the devices so many members have in their hands daily will significantly increase the health and wellness of our members.”
