In the 1960s, the United States overcame astonishing challenges to put people on the moon and then safely bring them home. That success was the product of years of brave work, and many small steps that combined to create an awesome outcome. In the 2020s, the United States will successfully reduce employer healthcare and benefits costs by 25% from current levels. The first step in that journey is for employers, who are the key consumers of healthcare, to take control of their data. Once employers properly control the flow of data, then they can control the flow of dollars. Learn how two employers, Prudential Financial and Linde, have revolutionized their approach to managing benefits. Via their use of an employer-controlled “lockbox,” benefits leaders at these companies broke down barriers that previously constrained them. It is still early days, but these employers are on the path to being fierce consumers of healthcare, who secure better care for their populations at drastically lower prices.
