The Executive Take: Greg Mansur, CEO
Your benefits handbook probably says preventive care is covered at 100%. It’s the law of the land, right? Research has found that 21–61% of employees experience cost sharing for services that are supposed to be covered at 100%—flu vaccines, mammograms, colonoscopies, even their annual wellness visit.
The worst part: The patients most likely to get billed are the ones with existing conditions or family history. In other words, those who need preventive care the most are getting penalized for showing up.

How to prove your preventive care program is actually working
Most employers can’t answer the most important question about their preventive benefits: “Is this actually lowering our costs?” The Triple Aim framework is a defensible method for measuring the impact of preventive care—and making the case to the CFO.
