Is it possible to reduce health benefits costs without compromising the quality of care? For employers, that could be the million-dollar question when it comes to potential savings.
For the answer, more and more employers are turning to Vanderbilt Health’s MyHealth Bundles program. The unique approach to value-based care offers one set price for the most common and costly health conditions while providing top-quality care. Because all necessary services are bundled, employers pay one predictable price, often at a lower cost. And employees pay low to no out-of-pocket costs.
Employees can get back to work sooner, and offering an attractive benefit like MyHealth Bundles can help with recruitment and employee retainment.
Video: The Story of MyOrthoHealth and a Camel Ride
MyHealth Bundles patients report high patient satisfaction scores. Take the Smiths, for example. Terrell Smith, senior director of Patient and Family Engagement at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, and her husband Billy planned to celebrate their 70th birthdays with a trip of a lifetime to the pyramids in Egypt, including a camel ride.
But after they signed up for the trip, Billy’s doctor told him the only option for his knee issues was a knee replacement, and Terrell had so much trouble walking that she needed a hip replacement.
They both chose MyOrthoHealth Bundles—Billy for knee replacement and Terrell for hip surgery. Their patient navigators guided them through the process and prepared them for surgery, and they rave about their care team, from the surgeon, to the nurses, to physical therapists.
Perhaps best of all, MyOrthoHealth allowed them to take their dream vacation, including exploring the sights atop a camel. Check out this video of their story.
