Episode Details

In this session, Chelsea Ryckis and Julia Watt, Director of HR at Medical Technology Transfer (MTT), delve into a case study on "Future-Proofing Your Health Benefits." They discuss how MTT, a 125-employee company, achieved a 67% reduction in claims cost over three years through a multi-year strategic plan. This conversation offers a roadmap for employers of all sizes to move away from the traditional, reactive renewal cycle and adopt a proactive, data-driven approach to managing healthcare costs and fiduciary responsibilities.

What you'll learn:

• How a small employer (125 employees) can implement innovative healthcare strategies often considered only for large corporations.
• The limitations of fully insured plans and the benefits of transitioning to level-funded and self-funded models.
• The importance of data transparency in understanding and controlling healthcare cost drivers.
• How to strategically unbundle your health plan and select vendors aligned with your company's best interests.
• The critical role of a fiduciary PBM in managing pharmacy costs, which are often a significant expense.
• Actionable steps to take control of your health plan, negotiate better terms, and reduce costs without compromising employee benefits.
