It's a pleasure to introduce Mary Karner as the newest addition to our team. Mary joins us with a wealth of clinical, primary care and account management experience.

We had the great fortune of engaging with benefit leaders from 60 of the most innovative employers. Across all three sessions over 2/3 of the benefit leaders said Primary Care was very important to their overall benefit strategy. Many of our conversations revolved around the rising cost trend and its impact on patient affordability and budgets, point solution fatigue, and the lack of primary care access patients face. These problems can all be solved by getting more members engaged with Advanced Primary Care instead of traditional fee-for-service primary care offered through broad networks. Thank you to Innovation Roundtable, A World 50 Group Community and Sally Welborn for brilliantly moderating the panel discussion and bringing this community together.

Thank you to Innovation Roundtable, A World 50 Group Community and to the incredible employers in Cohorts 2 & 4 that asked thoughtful questions and engaged in dialogue about the critical role Advanced Primary Care and aligned incentives can play in improving health outcomes and lowering healthcare costs. Special thanks to Sally Welborn for moderating an excellent panel discussion

Medical cost growth will rise to highest level in 13 years, with an 8% YOY medical cost trend for the Group market, according to a recent report from PwC. We agree with PwC that today’s medical cost trend is an urgent call to action to rethink strategies to manage the total cost of care more effectively. Aligned is purpose built to connect an employer's health plan members with better care, while lowering an employer's total cost-of-care. Connect with us to learn more.

People who work in healthcare in the US are often driven by a profound sense of purpose, but they face enormous challenges when trying to bring about change. In part, that’s because the system they work within is often complex and opaquely structured.  When our founding team came together to establish Aligned Marketplace, we shared a conviction that simplification is a crucial goal. Not only do we need to simplify the way primary care gets delivered, we also need to align the incentives between parties (hence the name “Aligned”). After talking for months with people involved in every aspect of the healthcare system, we realized that it is possible to bring together employers, primary care providers, and patients under a single model. That’s why every aspect of the Aligned Marketplace offering is designed to deliver “win-win-win” solutions: better for members, better for employers, and better for providers.

Implementing Aligned Marketplace has greatly enhanced access to Advanced Primary Care for employees and their families at one of our employer clients. A benefits leader who recently adopted Aligned Marketplace stated, "Aside from better care and reduced costs, the third major benefit was simply having choice. During our benefits search, it was challenging to find a single company that could serve and provide choice to our team across all 50 states..." We are proud to support employers looking to add Advanced Primary Care to their benefit offering. Discover how our innovative approach is solving the barrier employers have in accessing Advanced Primary Care.

You probably know that early detection and prevention can have a big impact on longevity. But did you know they have an even bigger effect on healthspan? Take type-2 diabetes for example. Getting diagnosed in your 30s rather than your 40s translates to an additional five years of life expectancy…but it also means up to a decade of not having to navigate preventable health issues. For employers, this kind of healthspan impact has huge implications for employee productivity and capability. Not only will early detection and prevention reduce healthcare costs for the employees on your medical plan, it’ll also keep them happy, healthy and productive longer—in some cases, years longer. That’s a competitive advantage nobody can ignore. To learn more about how Aligned Marketplace is improving access to early detection and prevention, and increasing healthspan through better primary care, give us a follow: there’s plenty more to talk about! https://lnkd.in/gX_C-YXi
