Healthcare navigation: How it reduces your HR team’s workload
HR teams are swamped, and unclear healthcare benefits add to that burden. Learn how healthcare navigation enhances employee experiences and eases HR's workload...
Read nowThough it may seem like common sense to opt into employer-sponsored healthcare, nearly 40% of employees choose to explore different options. [1] Following are some of the reasons your workforce might consider alternatives.
Some workers may opt out because premiums are too costly. With 58% of households living paycheck to paycheck, healthcare costs can be prohibitive. [2] Kaiser Family Foundation and CNBC report that 44% of insured adults worry about covering health insurance deductible costs. [3]
Just because someone doesn’t choose an employer-sponsored healthcare plan doesn’t mean they aren’t insured. Often those who opt out are on a family plan through a parent or partner.
Employer-sponsored plans are often designed for the general population rather than each person’s unique needs. If employees don’t see benefits that align with their healthcare needs, they may decline to participate in your health plan.
Employers can help address these concerns and ensure the healthiest workforce possible with personalized healthcare solutions. Accolade partners with HR benefit administrators to help them select and deliver benefits that make it easier to access equitable care, navigate healthcare and have positive experiences.
