According to a Harris Poll, American patients often prioritize factors like how long it takes to get to an appointment (47%), hospital affiliation (49%), office location (69%), and whether a physician is covered by their health insurance plan (72%). But here's something else to consider: while convenience and coverage are essential, they shouldn't overshadow the importance of a providers competence. At Northwell Direct, we recognize the significance of these factors and emphasize our network of over 32,000 healthcare providers across a wide variety of specialties, ensuring that convenience doesn't come at the cost of quality. We believe that not only do patients deserve accessibility to care but also the confidence in receiving the highest quality of care possible. And with a network as extensive and qualified as ours, you don't have to compromise on either.

The flu virus is a serious threat that can lead to missed workdays, family events, or even hospitalization. No one is immune- regardless of age, health status, or lifestyle. The best defense?

While the initial surge in telemedicine usage has seen a slight decline, one thing is clear - virtual care is here to stay. Telemedicine has revolutionized healthcare, offering unprecedented accessibility and convenience for patients who might otherwise struggle to access the care they need. From secure video consultations to seamless follow-ups, telemedicine continues to provide essential services, particularly for those in underserved areas and demographics. The ability to reach patients wherever they are, coupled with the comfort of receiving care from home, makes virtual care a vital component of present-day healthcare delivery. At Northwell Direct, we support leveraging telemedicine to extend reach and improve health outcomes for all. By embracing best practices and continually refining our approach, we ensure that virtual care remains a reliable, secure, and patient-centered option for the future. https://lnkd.in/eArq4ikc #northwelldirect #telehealthservices #virtualhealth #virtualhealthdelivery #patientcare #virtualcare #healthcareinnovation #teleappointments #digitalhealth #telemedicine

If your questioning whether your current health plan is sustainable for your employees and business, consider your options with Northwell Direct. Many organizations choose for fully-insured plans, where they pay monthly premiums to a health insurance company to cover their employees. However, a self-insured employer assumes the financial risk directly, paying a share of their employees' healthcare needs, giving you better control over your cash flow and adding value to your organization through greater flexibility and customizable options. With access to a vast network of over 32,000 providers, we offer unparalleled expertise in supporting self-funded employers. We empower employers to take control of their healthcare expenses while providing optimal coverage for their employees. Explore the advantages of self-funded insurance and see how it compares to traditional models here: https://lnkd.in/gVhHdVVA #northwelldirect #healthcareplans #healthplan #traditionalhealthmodels #costsavings #healthdollars #selffunded #selffunding #hrfocus #employerfocus #fullyinsured #tacklinghealth #selffundedinsurance #whatisselffunded

In these challenging times, even as inflation eases, the financial stress continues to weigh heavily on many consumers. Recent findings from the University of Michigan reveal that individuals between the ages 50-64 are feeling the pressure, with an alarming 16% of adults over 50 having postponed healthcare due to cost. At Northwell Direct, we understand these concerns. We believe that preventative healthcare is key to catching and monitoring health issues, which can help reduce long-term costs and improve the overall well-being for consumers. We encourage employers to consider the financial stress placed on their workforce and explore options that ensure access to necessary healthcare without breaking the bank.
