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 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.
Last month, we shared that we are seeing increases in high-cost specialty medications and how Excellus BCBS developed innovative programs that focus on the quality of care while also helping to manage rising costs. This month, we’re talking about our cost saving medical programs including outpatient surgeries, supporting members with high-cost conditions, and the importance of preventive care programs.
What is Excellus BCBS doing to help combat these costs? And how can you best talk to your clients and continue to provide the exceptional service you give to our mutual customers surrounding these concerns? We’ll continue to share with you some resources and programs to help businesses and employees improve the quality of their care, contain costs, and get the most value from their plans.
