In 2003, Serigraph's annual health care bill was its third largest expense and growing at a rate of 15% a year. Health care cost escalations were in danger of bankrupting their company. In order to significantly lower costs, company leaders knew they needed to take a radical approach. Serigraph focused its strategies on three areas--consumer responsibility, primary care, and centers of value. In concert with other management methods, these tactics slashed costs while improving the quality of employee care. Instead of double-digit inflation of its health care costs, the company's average increase dropped to 2.8%, far below the national average. Serigraph's cost per employee actually dropped! The Company That Solved Health Care offers effective, cost-cutting solutions to today's business leaders. Learn about and apply some of these proven strategies at your company.
Discover how you can: Adopt a consumer-driven plan so employees take ownership of their health care Take advantage of lean disciplines in your company's health care plans Put the emphasis on primary care to keep people well and out of expensive hospitals Fight for transparency in prices Guide employees though the pricing maze and lead them to centers of value Use "medical tourism" for your benefit Champion consumer protection laws to remedy medical overbilling
