One hundred and fifty million Americans currently receive health insurance coverage through their employer, even after the failure of traditional health insurance plans to meet employers' needs. The plans are expensive; the fixed costs with logistical challenges of switching to self-insurance kept American employers locked into fully insured health plans. With the latest in cloud-based software technology and data science, Collective Health is democratizing access to self-insurance for the majority of American companies.
"Recently, a lot of attention has been paid to making individuals better consumers of healthcare, and health insurance in particular. However, in the United States, employers drive most health insurance purchasing decisions and cover the lion's share of healthcare costs," said Ali Diab, co-founder and CEO of Collective Health. "With the backing of investors behind such transformative companies as SpaceX and Workday, and by leveraging the latest in cloud-based software technology, UX design and data science, Collective Health has developed the first self-insurance SaaS platform for American employers to sponsor their employees' healthcare on their own terms, without the need for a traditional health insurance plan."
