According to the 2025 Business Group on Health Employer Health Care Strategy Survey, the projected increase in health care costs rose from 6% in 2022 to almost 8% for 2025. Even after plan design changes, actual health care costs continued to grow at a rate exceeding pre-pandemic increases and are expected to continue rising.

As large employers begin to face lawsuits from their employees over claims of mismanaging health and pharmaceutical benefits and violating their fiduciary duties under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA), it’s time for every employer to scrutinize their employee benefit offerings. ERISA requires self-funded employers acting as health plan fiduciaries to make a good faith effort to offer the lowest costs for healthcare services to their employees. In 2021, the Consolidated Appropriations Act (CAA) amended ERISA to create new transparency requirements that gave employers more tools and increased the pressure to fulfill their obligations to employees.

Now is the time for employers to get more aggressive with their management of benefits. The first step is getting a handle on existing contracts and analyzing your claims data. Not only does Accarent Health offer historical and ongoing claims data analysis, through our online platform, Accarent provides access to over 800 searchable transparent bundled services, satisfying the Transparency in Coverage Rule, and helping employees better understand the costs associated with their healthcare and enhancing their ability to shop for the healthcare that best suits their needs. Visit us at www.accarenthealth.com to learn more.

Accarent Health streamlines the comparison of healthcare costs by bringing the process closer to the patient, employer, and health plan decision makers.
