The employer opportunity

Your employees make two kinds of healthcare decisions.Both affect what you spend.

Employees choose a health plan once a year. Then they make decisions about how to use it all year long. My Health ID is designed to bring better information closer to both.

The opportunity

Benefits decisions don't happen once a year.

  1. 01

    Choose

    Select a health plan

  2. 02

    Use

    Navigate care, coverage and benefits

  3. 03

    Understand

    See deductible progress, out-of-pocket spending and how the plan is working for you

  4. 04

    Choose again

    Bring this year's experience into next year's decision

↺ Then the loop begins again

My Health ID is designed to create continuity between these moments — beginning with something employees already recognize and need: their benefits card.

At enrollment

More coverage isn't always better coverage.

Choosing a health plan asks employees to weigh premiums, deductibles, cost sharing and financial risk against healthcare needs they can't know with certainty.

That can make richer or more expensive coverage feel safer — even when another option may be a better financial fit.

Instead of asking employees to start from scratch each open enrollment, My Health ID can help them evaluate next year's options in the context of how they actually used healthcare this year.

What this tells us

Your family met most of its deductible, but remained well below its out-of-pocket maximum.

This doesn't tell us whether another plan would have cost less.

Could a different plan be a better fit?

During the year

Help employees use what you're already paying for.

Bring in-network resources closer to the moment they're needed.
Understand cost

Understand coverage

Use existing benefits

Why it matters

Better benefits decisions can create value on both sides.

For employees

Make benefits easier to understand and use.

Clearer plan choices. Easier access to benefits information. Better visibility into deductible and out-of-pocket progress. A simpler way to find existing care and pharmacy resources.

For employers

Get more value from the benefits you're already funding.

Make existing benefits and programs easier to reach. Reduce routine navigation friction. Bring better information to the point of decision, where it can reduce avoidable healthcare spending — and support better-informed plan selection that can reduce unnecessary spending on coverage.

When employees can make better-informed decisions about both choosing and using their benefits, employers have a stronger opportunity to reduce unnecessary spending and get more value from the benefits they already fund.

For benefits teams

Turn benefits engagement into meaningful action.

My Health ID helps benefits teams understand how employees use their benefits, uncover opportunities for better guidance, and take action through timely, targeted communications.

From engagement insights to recommended next steps—all in one connected experience.

Built around aggregated engagement insights—not individual employee healthcare activity.
