- Abstract:
-
There is a significant disconnection between how companies view the risk of providing a good health benefit program to their employees and how companies view other corporate risks, i.e. Property, Casualty, Liability, Workers Compensation, etc.
When it comes to the risk of unhealthy plan members resulting in increased health plan costs, the people that manage benefits do not typically understand or practice true loss control. The typical objective is to minimize the cost after the loss has occurred, i.e. PPO discounts, Case Management, etc. or pay dearly and transfer all the risk to an insurance company.
A major paradigm shift to a culture of health and productivity management (HPM) is required.
