The Goal

Health Navigators’ goal is to drive down the cost of employer-sponsored health plans by improving the overall health of their employee populations and reduce the need to continually shift additional costs to employees and their families. 

The Method

Under the direction of Health Navigators, employers develop strategies where their employees can successfully identify diseases at early stages and participate in programs which improve their health if they are determined to be “at-risk”.  This process, tailored around the unique needs of each employer, uses evidence-based medical standards and proven interventions which effectively reduce both risk and costs.

The Result

Companies who formally develop and implement early disease identification and risk-reduction interventions  succeed in improving the overall health of their employees and reduce the cost of their health plan.

Health Navigators' Role

Under the direction of Health Navigators, employers implement strategies where preventable diseases can be identified at the earliest stages when interventions are least expensive and most effective.  Tailored around the unique needs of each employer, the process uses evidence-based medical standards and proven interventions. Health Navigators'  diverse experience and established credibility, coupled with strong relationships with medicine, health benefits, insurance, health promotion, technology and advocacy offer significant advantages to our clients. 

Health Navigators will always look first to an employer’s local community resources (hospitals, physicians, dietitians, etc.) to help implement solutions before introducing outside resources to support their effort. However, if local resources are either unavailable or unwilling to partner with the employer, Health Navigators will negotiate with outside resources to accomplish the job.
