Assess
Mitigate Partners completes a comprehensive review of your needs - and your current healthcare plan - through surveys, interviews, and various observation techniques. From that review, our advisors will prepare an analysis of their findings to discuss with your team and prepare for a new healthcare plan design that will better meet your needs to save costs and provide more benefits for your employees.
Implement
Rather than having "enrollment periods", each Mitigate Partners advisor will hold participant education sessions, to help every employee understand in detail the benefits included in your healthcare plan. Every advisor is directly involved in all aspects of your high-value healthcare plan throughout our partnership, from education to launch with ongoing support.
Plan
From our analysis and work together, our advisors will craft a recommended healthcare plan that better meets your needs. Generally, Mitigate Partners focuses on reducing costs and keeping the same benefits - or providing more - for your employees. Our goal is to create a healthcare plan that is specific to your business, provides choices for your plan participants, and generally deliver more overall value.
Optimize
With Mitigate Partners, you become an Active Manager of a better healthcare plan that works for your business and your employees, because the plan is custom and built to your specifications and needs. That's different - and much better - than what you may have with other options that are generic and have a "one-size-fits-all" model. More benefits, lower costs, greater satisfaction, improved performance.
