Featured in this latest episode of Tuning In to the C-Suite podcast is Paul Fronstin, director of health benefits research at EBRI, who shed light on the evolving landscape of health benefits with editors of Managed Healthcare Executive. Fronstin discussed the challenges employers face in designing health plans that steer employees toward high-value care. He also shared insights on high-deductible health plans (HDHPs), noting that while they initially lead to reduced healthcare usage, they don’t deliver significant long-term savings. Looking ahead, he highlighted the potential of technology, such as AI and mobile apps, to empower employees to better understand their health benefits and make more informed decisions during open enrollment.
