Health benefits have traditionally forced employers and employees into the same uncomfortable tradeoff: control rising costs or offer richer benefits. But what if the future of employer-sponsored healthcare could do both?
In this session, Thatch VP of Revenue, Kevin Hollingshead, will explore how leading employers are rethinking health benefits around two ideas that rarely coexist: financial predictability for the business and greater choice for the individual. Instead of asking every employee to fit into a one-size-fits-all, company-selected plan, an employee health budget gives employers control over what they spend while giving employees the ability to choose coverage based on their doctors, prescriptions, families, budgets, and lives. And the budget doesn't stop at the plan: what's left can go toward copays, prescriptions, and eligible health and wellness purchases — turning benefits spend into money employees actually see and use.
Drawing on what Thatch is seeing across thousands of employers and the rapidly evolving individual insurance market, Kevin will share why this shift is about much more than escaping the annual renewal cycle. It represents a move toward a more personal benefits experience — one where healthcare becomes more portable and valuable to employees while becoming more sustainable for employers.
