Employer Resources

Suboptimal health is costing US employers billions annually.


Although less than 2% of the general population utilizes specialty medications, they account for up to 45% of the total drug spend.

Of growing concern are numerous new and pricey prescription drugs and specialty pharmaceutical products often cited as a key culprit behind rising healthcare costs. Given their substantial financial investment into employee health, employers are justified in asking whether healthcare expenditures contribute to improved employee health, productivity, and the bottom line.

Increased focus is being placed on delivering “value-based care” as healthcare reform evolves rapidly. New value-based healthcare models aim to provide improved patient care and enhanced health outcomes while reducing healthcare costs and complications.
