Lantern

Employer Direct Healthcare, including SurgeryPlus and Cancer Care Direct, is now Lantern.   Just as a lantern guides the way through the darkness, Lantern steers your organization toward exceptional care for your employees and significant cost savings. We’re thrilled to reintroduce ourselves as Lantern and continue lighting the way forward for our members and partners. https://lnkd.in/g8GCiJt5

At Lantern, we’re very passionate about our provider network – it’s the cornerstone of our care. Our CEO John Zutter said it best in conversation with Arundhati Parmar MedCity News at HLTH USA: “We want to have a network that consists of teaching institutes, for the rare and the complex; hospitals, for when that’s appropriate; and out-patient settings, for when that’s optimized.” We’re focused on curating a network that provides high quality care through a variety of provider venues, directing to the most appropriate treatment options so we can provide more care, more efficiently, and for lower costs to employers and their employees. https://lnkd.in/gNgSvDwi 

We’re looking forward to the International Foundation of Employee Benefit Plans (IFEBP) 70th Annual Employee Benefits Conference next week. We’re excited about the opportunity to speak with public employers and labor leaders about how we can lower their overall healthcare costs and deliver the best quality care to their members.   If you will be at the conference, be sure to visit our booth (1342) and reach out to Jamie McLeod from our team to chat.   #IFannual

You get what you pay for…not necessarily.   Higher costs do not guarantee better-quality outcomes when it comes to specialty care—MSK surgery, bariatric surgery, cancer care solutions, and infusion therapy. Your company could be overpaying for worse results.   In our next webinar, our Chief Medical Officer, Jason Tibbels, MD, FAAFP and SVP, Consultant Relations, Erin Tatar, will join Ryan McCracken, Director of Benefits at Edward Jones, to discuss how to choose a COE based on proven quality metrics rather than cost.   Key takeaways: 💡Discover the quality metrics that matter most for impactful healthcare benefits   💰⬇️Learn strategies to enhance care quality while reducing cost   🗳️Hear firsthand how an industry leader evaluated quality and selected their surgical COE   📅Register today: https://lnkd.in/g4zC9kjT
