When you’re running a business, one of the biggest and most stressful HR expenses is your employer-provided health insurance. It’s a necessary expense that always seems to be rising without pause or relief every single year, and for what? Working with insurance companies is a massive headache for anybody–employer or employee–and it’s more common than not for insurance plans to make it pointlessly difficult to access benefits and the resources you need to stay well.

It’s increasingly common knowledge that having healthy and happy employees makes for a more productive business that not only makes more money, but saves money too. It makes sense: who works their hardest when they’re sick or preoccupied with something outside of work? And yet, for almost everybody in the country, the feeling is mutual: the less we have to deal with health insurance companies, the less stressed we are. As a society we aren’t getting notably healthier, and when premiums keep going up without seeing a notable increase in employee health outcomes, productivity, or happiness, then the return on investment for an employer starts making a lot less sense.

So what can you do to keep health insurance costs in-check, while also providing your employees the level of care, support, and resources they need to be happy workers and healthier human beings? We believe that the future of employee wellness is in direct-to-employer benefits that address the health and wellness needs of employees without the complexity and frustration of having to navigate the quagmire of insurance, and that’s where Health Quotient by TCO comes in.
