Apex Benefits Group Launches Innovative HEALTHeTrac Program
INDIANAPOLIS--(Business Wire)--
Apex Benefits Group, headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana, has developed a
unique program called HEALTHeTrac. HEALTHeTrac is an integrated,
electronic-based initiative that provides employers a cost and time-saving
health and benefits solution. This new program is designed to connect and share
information between the benefits plan, the wellness program and possible on-site
clinics utilizing the HEALTHeTrac system, leading to enhanced disease and case
management efforts and contributing to improved overall employee health. 

"I envision the HEALTHeTrac program playing a key role in helping employers
navigate through this tough economic cycle and beyond," says President John
Gause. "Improved data will allow employers to make better decisions regarding
the management of their healthcare program." 

HEALTHeTrac is designed to help the employer, their HR department and employees
with the following:

* Reducing overall healthcare expenditures and eliminating some out-of-pocket
costs 
* Readily identifying factors driving healthcare costs 
* Assisting in improving benefits plan design 
* Creating a healthier workforce 
* Analyzing data to track results and return on investment 
* Improving the employees` knowledge of benefits

This innovative program allows all partnering health providers, HR departments,
insurance carriers and vendors to receive data in order to better serve the
members of the plan while reducing costs. It will change the way companies and
organizations look at their employee benefits plan. 

"As an alternative to cost shifting, we consider this program as a real solution
to potentially offsetting in part the rising costs of healthcare," says Todd
Foushee, Director of Operations at Apex Benefits Group. "That will result in
savings for both the members of the health plan and the employer."
