Health Insurance Member Experience Survey
Understand how health insurance members evaluate coverage, compare care access, and navigate claims, service, and renewal decisions, so you can strengthen acquisition, sharpen product positioning, and improve retention across priority member segments.
CONTEXT & RELEVANCE
Why run this survey now
Most health insurers don't lose members purely on premium increases. They underperform due to claim uncertainty, network gaps, support delays, opaque benefits, and renewal friction, none of which fully show up in complaint logs or satisfaction scores.
If you are...
- Health plan CX leaders
- Member retention teams
- Claims operations heads
- Product & pricing managers
- Distribution channel leaders
You're likely facing...
- High satisfaction masks weak renewal intent among profitable member cohorts
- Network breadth appears strong while care access gaps persist
- Claims communication delays create avoidable support escalation across channels
- Rising premiums drive plan switching risk despite valued benefits
- Limited visibility into member friction drivers weakens service prioritisation
This will help answer...
- Renewal risk by segment
- Claims journey friction points
- Network access priority gaps
- Service channel improvement levers
- Benefit positioning opportunities
