Ingenix, a Consensus Point partner, to feature the Ingenix Prediction Market at the upcoming NBGH National Forum on Health, Productivity, and Human Capital, October 13-15, 2009 in Philadelphia. 

A prediction market improves on traditional research methods by:

-          Providing a quantitative method to capture the attitudes and beliefs that influence behavior

-          Adjusting for respondents’ confidence and historical accuracy

-          Incentivizing respondents to reveal what they will do

-          Focusing on what groups of respondents will do rather than what an individual thinks 

If your organization offers health care benefits, understanding members’ health conditions and hidden risks is fundamental to eliminating excess spending.  But you also need to know who will respond to your messages, what actions they will take based on the options you provide, and the timing of those actions.

The Ingenix Prediction Market brings a unique and reliable forecasting method to the health care sector, at exactly the moment when predicting reactions and driving innovation are desperately needed.
