Description

Healthcare costs aren’t going down, and figuring out how to manage them while still offering great benefits can feel like a balancing act. In this edition of our ELEVATE webinar series, Conrad Siegel's Jim Pyne and Fred Gard will walk you through what’s happening with costs right now, what’s likely coming next, and smart ways to tackle expenses. We’ll cover proven strategies that work along with approaches you might not have considered.  

By the end of this session, attendees will: 

- Understand current and projected healthcare cost trends and the factors driving them. 

- Compare the benefits, risks, and cost implications of fully insured versus self-funded arrangements. 

- Identify traditional cost mitigation strategies including plan design, premium sharing, and eligibility changes. 

- Evaluate non-traditional approaches such as onsite clinics, narrow networks, direct contracting, and reference-based pricing. 

- Recognize key contract considerations for stop loss coverage, prescription drug programs, and coalition purchasing.
