Healthcare2U and Pan-American Life Insurance Group Partner to Improve Employer Benefits on a National Scale
April 26, 2018 – AUSTIN, TX — Healthcare2U, the nation’s fastest-growing integrated Direct Primary Care provider in the country, announces today a new relationship with Pan-American Life Insurance Group – a leading provider of life, accident and health insurance in the Americas. This alliance will extend Healthcare2U’s platform beyond the 15 states it currently services in response to employer and broker demand for an affordable, healthcare solution for employers specifically seeking a compliant and creative solution for the Affordable Care Act (ACA) mandates.
The direct result of this relationship uniquely combines Healthcare2U’s national Direct Primary Care membership and Pan-American Life’s insurance strategies to expand employee benefits while capping healthcare costs for employers. Once fully implemented, Healthcare2U’s cost-containment model can save a company up to 60 percent in healthcare expenses by eliminating claims and controlling an employer’s healthcare spend.
“With Pan-American Life’s 100+ years of experience and accountability, we are excited to collaborate with them to expand employer access to offer affordable healthcare coverage and benefits to their employees,” said Healthcare2U CEO, Andy Bonner. “This relationship will intensify the national expansion of Healthcare2U’s network, which continues to deliver quality and affordable access to healthcare.”
Combining the Pan-American PanaBridge Advantage with Healthcare2U offers a unique patient navigation platform that guides members toward affordable and convenient care within their proprietary Private Physicians Network (PPN)™. Healthcare2U provides unlimited same-day/next-day doctor appointments for acute issues at $10 a visit and around-the-clock telemedicine for no out-of-pocket cost. In addition, members receive unlimited access to chronic disease management for 13 of the most prevalent diseases at the same visit fee of $10. Physicians within the Healthcare2U partner clinics also practice generic-first protocols to reduce pharmaceutical costs for employers and employees.
“This is a relationship of two companies who share the same values and passion for providing creative, high-quality healthcare at an affordable price to more employers,” said Carlo Mulvenna, Vice President of U.S. Benefits at Pan-American Life. “We are thrilled to align with a benefits innovator like Healthcare2U, and are excited to take healthcare accessibility to new heights together.”
Healthcare2U has more than 230 physician partnerships in more than 15 states. Most recently, Healthcare2U announced its first partnerships in the greater Los Angeles area.
