In this 15-minute session, we’ll take a closer look at a common challenge in health plan management: a small percentage of members often account for the majority of claims costs, putting significant financial strain on the plan.
As healthcare expenses continue to rise, finding ways to support these individuals - while also protecting the long-term sustainability of the plan - is more important than ever.
