As cancer rates rise and care becomes more complex and costly, employers are rethinking how they support employees across the full journey—from early detection to treatment and recovery. This session explores how more integrated, high-touch benefits strategies can close gaps in traditional coverage, improve outcomes, and deliver a better experience for employees while helping organizations manage one of their most significant drivers of healthcare spend.
In the age of GLP-1s, balancing costs with providing access to weight care has become a challenge for benefits leaders. If coverage is made available, it could cost employers $10K per employee annually–a cost that skyrockets to $35K per family annually if coverage exists for employees and their dependents.
Igniting a culture of employee wellness that prioritizes preventative care, not reactive spending, shouldn’t be a balancing act. The long-term side effects of not treating obesity and its chronic conditions are far greater than the challenges resulting from GLP-1s. With the right tools, organizations can create a benefits design that improves lives while controlling costs.
In this session, Adele Feng, Director of Clinical Operations at Found, and Corey Gilchrist, VP of Total Rewards at Shamrock Foods Company will dive into:
- Cost containment measures and how to establish a strategy that controls spending in the long-term
- Real-world data from a case study built in partnership with Shamrock Foods Company that provides evidence on the impact of virtual weight care on obesity
- The role of compounded GLP-1s, clinical oversight, and metabolic health as forces shaping the weight care landscape
- Recommendations on how to build a benefits design that meets your strategic priorities.
When employees face a serious medical condition, the impact on their health and financial well-being can be devastating. These cases are also driving a significant share of rising healthcare costs for employers—yet many solutions still rely on fragmented, one-size-fits-all care. How can you prioritize personalized, expert-driven healthcare that delivers better health outcomes and financial savings for your company? In this session, Ropes and Gray LLP and Private Health Management (PHM) share learnings from their partnership, revealing how advanced care navigation provides employees with faster access to top specialists, reduces unnecessary treatments, and improves overall well-being. Attendees will gain actionable insights into how two organizations collaborated to introduce an innovative, next-generation benefit that transforms employee health. This case study will explore a cutting-edge model for improving clinical outcomes and the collaborative process for implementation and engagement, and it will demonstrate how personalized medicine reduces high-cost claims while offering employees the best of what’s possible in healthcare.
