Care navigation often becomes harder when a helpful conversation ends without a clear next step.
Live support can build confidence while handoffs can still introduce friction and uncertainty.
“I finally got someone on the phone, but then I was back to figuring it out alone.”

What pulls against what
- Immediate member help vs scalable routing
- Agent simplicity vs referral detail
- Fast adjustment vs measurement quality
What is at stake
A member who asks for help should not lose momentum after the call. Better partner routing can turn assisted navigation into a scheduled care visit
Why Headway
