BUSINESS: Construction, Infrastructure, and Excavation

EMPLOYEES: 180

THE CHALLENGE: A Denver-Area company with 180 enrolled employees struggled with two cases of End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). Therefore, dialysis was an ongoing issue and brought very high claim costs of $500,000 annually. Their Carrier Controlled plan left them exposed to high costs and poor flexibility to minimize future risks.

OUR SOLUTION: CCIG educated the client on a different path. We aligned the client with the right carrier partners, cost containment strategies and were able to negotiate stronger pricing for dialysis through a “carve-out” amending the Plan Document language.

THE OUTCOME: Client has realized cost reductions over $250,000 for the pricing of each dialysis treatment. The client saved +$580,000 in the first year.
