Healthcare Self-Funding Overview

From Cost Challenges to Control: Self-Funding and Risk Strategies for Lowering Healthcare Expenses

Attracting and retaining your best providers is key to building a successful and sustainable healthcare organization and having a robust group health insurance program is vital to that cause. However, most small to mid-size healthcare providers are finding it difficult to stay competitive due to the rising costs and shrinking coverage of fully-insured programs. This presentation will discuss the cost drivers of our health care system, the rise of self-funding for small to mid-size businesses and risk management strategies that can lead to lower costs and better healthcare outcomes to your employees and their families.
