Health Care Plans: Get More for Less with Nelson Griswold | And so it continues…the disruption of just about everything in the way we do business, including how we attract and retain top talent. Offerings like video interviews, remote opportunities, and even full “work from home” positions are now common. These and other employee-centric modifications make a business more attractive to top talent.  But in this high-stakes game of talent attraction, there is one offering that’s been overlooked. And it’s a valuable one…valuable to both employees and employers alike. So what is this valuable but overlooked offering? Your workplace health care plan.  When it comes to health care plan, the old business model persists. And not surprisingly, it’s a model that benefits the insurance companies. In a nutshell, you pay more and you get less. How much more? According to the Kaiser family foundation, premiums have tripled since 1999. Despite this increase in premiums, deductibles have gone up. And the levels of service have not gone up! So as an employer you’re paying more, you’re employees are paying more…and all for the same product. There’s no ROI, and there’s no other part of a business plan where this would be acceptable.
