Included Health

🥚 "The healthcare system is basically dropping three eggs from every carton on the floor, and employers are left to clean up the mess." For employers, healthcare is now the second-largest operating expense after payroll, with costs projected to rise by 9% in 2025 - three times the current inflation rate. Yet, much of this spending, up to 25%, is wasted on inefficiencies, low-quality care, and uncoordinated services. As Owen Tripp writes for Fast Company, the solution isn’t cutting benefits or raising premiums. Instead, it’s about shifting the focus to value. A high-value healthcare system prioritizes holistic care, personalized advocacy, and seamless experiences that guide people to the right care at the right time. Imagine a future where healthcare isn’t a fragmented maze but a personalized, all-in-one experience that offers virtual and in-person care, clinical guidance, and support with bills and claims. This is the future we’re building at #IncludedHealth: a #HealthcareTransformation that delivers better outcomes, builds trust, and ensures every dollar spent is worth it. https://lnkd.in/gy2m8h6f #ValueBasedCare #HealthAdvocacy #HealthPlans #FCImpactCouncil

No big deal, just a shiny new award plaque for our HQ shelf in San Francisco. In January we shared that our #HealthyDays program was recognized as a winner in the 2025 #BIGInnovationAwards by the Business Intelligence Group. This prestigious awards program honors the visionaries, products, and organizations that are revolutionizing the world with bold innovation. Measuring Healthy Days is based on the belief that ongoing engagement with people in proactive, personalized ways leads to improved health outcomes for all. By simply checking in with members about how they're feeling every 90 days, we’ve been able to identify unmet medical needs and connect individuals with the care they need to thrive. #PatientFirst #MoreHealthyDays #HealthPlans #HealthNav #HealthAdvocacy #IncludedHealth

💬 Debate: Over 40% of U.S. adults face obesity, driving demand for effective medications and #VirtualCare for access. But how should technology shape the future of care? 📌 Point: Technology is the only way to widen access to care and innovative new treatments to all of those living with obesity. 📌 Counter: Tech is key, but especially with chronic care, patients should have a continuous relationship with a provider - even if it is virtual. #IncludedHealth's Owen Tripp joins the speaker line up at the 2025 #STATBreakthrough Summit in NYC on Thursday to discuss how #ObesityCare + #HealthTech are shifting the future of healthcare. Let's take this debate to the comments! 👇
