Watch for brokers to sell more and varied services and to integrate with other health care constituents in implementing:
- Value-based benefit programs - optimized plan designs that incent members and providers to comply with specific protocols of care.
- Population health management - stratification of employees; early identification of those with high health risks; programs that support members who account for the greatest claim costs; and incentives that drive program participation, cost savings and improved clinical outcomes.
- Wellness services and programs - lifestyle programs that help employees and their families manage the controllable behaviors of overeating, physical inactivity and smoking.
- Value-based reimbursement programs - incentives for care providers, medical practices and facilities to adhere to evidenced-based medicine and other quality measures in providing care for consumers.
