How You Can Support Your Team with the Rise of Health Care Costs: Part Six from Excellus BlueCross BlueShield
We’re back with the final part in of our high-quality care and cost savings series. (Please click here to view parts one, two, three, four, and five of our series)
We know the upward trend of health care costs is expected to continue, impacting employers and individuals alike. High prescription drug prices, increases in outpatient procedures, and more members needing high-cost hospital care are challenging health plans, employers, patients, and the entire health care system. That’s why we work to find solutions that prioritize the wellbeing of employees and quality of care while also addressing the financial strain caused by these escalating expenses.
Over the last month, we’ve shared some resources and programs to help your business and employees improve the quality of their care, contain costs, and get the most value from your health plan. As we wrap up this blog series, we wanted to make sure you have access to our library of resources that supports you as you’re navigating open enrollment and beyond.
Here are some actions you can take to help control costs:
- Download our cost savings toolkits where you can access more information, resources, and prewritten emails for sharing with your employees. These toolkits will support you in opening a dialogue with employees as well as sharing ways employees can navigate the health care system, understanding what care is right for them, and help improve outcomes.
- Please don’t hesitate to contact your account manager or broker for more information on these programs.
