Arcwood® is a relationship-based consulting firm who tailors employee benefit plans based on your company’s strategic, industry, and competitive requirements.
Present transparent pricing options
Healthcare Reform has created a perfect storm of misalignments in the insurance industry solidifying an ever confusing and opaque system, all paid for by you and your employees. Could you imagine providing your team a business credit card that was unregulated? You must pay the bill, but you have no knowledge of the details of the expense.
Think how your experience of buying a car would be if you had to buy the car before knowing the cost, and the variable options? Ridiculous right?
Things. Can. Be. Different.
We create plans where you have access and control of your plan data.
Custom plan design and operation
Create a multi-year strategy:
- Get access to your plan data to make educated decisions on your plan operations and design.
- Employ strategies to remove excess expenses from procedures and prescriptions (you read that right, we create plans that pay less for the same procedures and prescriptions).
- Award your plan participants with reduced out-of-pocket expenses for becoming better healthcare consumers.
Participant education and guidance
Participant education is paramount to the success of any benefits plan. Participants and their family are educated to understand they have options to help them during a stressful and confusing time.
Member advocates are added to our plans to provide:
- Guidance to the best performing providers based on quality metrics
- Comfort to your participants knowing they have an advocate to assist them, reducing stress and confusion.
