A growing manufacturer had a mission to retain its employees and ensure the wellbeing of its workforce by offering exemplary healthcare benefits. When their part-time, onsite clinic was no longer meeting the needs of its employees and company goals, they knew it was time to invest in a more robust primary care solution.
The business leaders had the foresight to recognize that primary care is the lowest care investment with the greatest impact on future healthcare spend and outcomes. They were seeking a long-term, sustainable solution that would enhance the level of care employees were receiving, while also eliminating downstream costs. Healthgram helped bring this concept to life by finding the right independent doctor that aligned with their goals, while providing proprietary EHR software required to proactively identify high risks and report/measure outcomes for success.
As a result, the company experienced substantially lower healthcare costs, compared to the national average.
This manufacturer understood that with the current healthcare environment, many employees avoid primary care due to common barriers such as: cost, insurance confusion, access and time. This results in untreated conditions and higher costs for both employees and the company. The Direct Primary Care clinic eliminated those barriers and provided employees with a company doctor that they could develop a trusting relationship with.
Employees that are on the company’s health plan can voluntarily access the clinic with no out-of-pocket charges. Members receive one-on-one, personalized care at a convenient location when it’s most suitable with their schedule.
