Challenges

Grace College is an evangelical Christian community of higher education that applies biblical values in strengthening character, sharpening competence, and preparing for service. Due to their self-funded strategy for health insurance, the college was facing as much as $3.4 million in unpredictable exposure from employee medical costs. In the midst of increasing budget pressure, they were struggling to continue with such high costs.

Results

Key Wins

Taking into account the amount of inflationary trend increases Grace would have experienced on their group plan, they now stand to save $2+ million over the next few years as a result of the switch to the Remodel Health Platform. The organization’s overall exposure dropped significantly, and many of the employees have seen a decrease in their annual medical costs as well. With the additional realized savings stewarded back into the college budget, Grace was able to give discretionary compensation increases to their staff.
