Meritain Health is one of the nation's largest administrators of self-funded benefit plans, and is the leading independent administrator of Consumer-Directed Health Plans. The Evolution of Meritain Health Healthcare costs continue to soar out of control. Healthcare expenses for corporate employers have increased 16% over the last three years. At current trend, a 1,000-employee company can expect to spend approximately $45 million on health benefits over the next five years. Smart benefit planning and execution have truly become strategic imperatives. Incremental measures to minimize costs do nothing to address the fundamental issues that threaten to drive the price of health benefits to unsustainable levels. Simply stated, the current health care system does not encourage employees to become better healthcare consumers. Mid-sized companies in particular are in healthcare jeopardy. They do not typically receive the attention and resources necessary to pursue short-term cost controls and to engineer a path to affordable healthcare in the long term. The Meritain Difference Employers should not have to choose between large, inflexible managed care companies who offer poor service but good cost management, and smaller TPAs who provide better, more personalized service at the expense of cost management capabilities. In both cases, service providers have generally done a poor job helping their clients plan to manage costs in the long term. Meritain Health is committed to providing our clients with all of the services they expect, as well as the resources to help them manage the long-term costs of their health benefit programs. We understand that by having a focus on current and future healthcare costs, we provide the most value for our clients. Recent studies have shown that 70% of healthcare costs can be attributed to lifestyle-related illness and are therefore preventable. At Meritain Health, we believe that the only way to change the rising trend in healthcare costs is to change the behavior of employees, promote healthier lifestyles, and make them better healthcare consumers. As the cutting-edge leader in Consumer-Directed Health Care, we provide the education and tools necessary to change consumer healthcare behavior. Our goal is to understand and service individual health care needs, while providing the motivation and programs necessary to achieve healthcare goals. We also believe that having the size and strength to help clients govern short and long-term cost management programs does not diminish the importance of providing an excellent customer experience to our clients and their employees. To the contrary, we are committed to using our size and strength to offer our clients and members a personal, intimate and caring experience.
