Jul 11    TAKING CONTROL: Proven Strategies to Curb Healthcare Volatility & Improve the Value of your Organization

TAKING CONTROL: Proven Strategies to Curb Healthcare Volatility & Improve the Value of your Organization

Employer Sponsored healthcare has and continues to be one of the greatest financial challenges for many organizations throughout the United States. Historically, companies have turned to the insurance markets to manage expenses year over year only to find premiums continue to rise while the value of what is being purchased declines. As costs continue to increase, so too does the impact on culture, growth and EBITDA.

The U.S. healthcare system continues to become more complex while options within the traditional marketplace continue to worsen. To combat this, employers must take a more business-like approach to managing expenditures or be destined to stay in the vicious cycle they find themselves in today.

In Taking Control, we will reveal strategies to identify cost drivers, quantify them, and prioritize solutions to them. These proven strategies offer employers the ability to access nationally recognized carrier networks, create their own plan design, retain premiums typically reserved as profits for the insurance carriers, and curb year over year volatility.
