Tackle Your Healthcare Costs

Are you paying more and more for worse benefits? While some aspects of rising healthcare costs are driven by factors outside our control, there are MANY factors within our control, even for smaller employers.  The problem is that the strategies used by most brokers aren’t sustainable.

Learn how employers of all sizes, but especially with at least 20 employees, can manage their health care costs down, by taking an out-of-the box approach in multiple areas:

  • Re-thinking your provider delivery model
  • Focusing on paying for health improvements rather than just paying for sick care
  • Heavily incenting positive health changes without costing you a dime 
  • Harnessing the natural “outrage” in your employees to lower your costs
  • Taking advantage of innovative product and funding designs that help you cash in on the savings achieved by the other methods (check out our Self Funding Feasibility Study to see if this is right for you!)

Much of this work is best done well before the renewal starts, so now may be a great time to get started on this type of strategy work.  Join our webinar on April 7th from 10-11:15 am to jump start your game plan for your upcoming plan year! Register now!

This event is a Webinar only.  The day prior to the Webinar, all registrants will be sent the weblink and dial-in instructions to attend the program.
