The BCBSRI Case Study: The Importance of Leading by Example

At BCBSRI, we believe it is our mandate to advocate for change on behalf of our clients. In 2012, we started an evolution to consumer-directed healthcare for our own employees that helped put our beliefs into practice. What began with some incremental changes is now a fully integrated program focused on employee well-being. The transformation has been a revelation. We used data and insights to rethink our entire benefits program, strategy, and practice. We’ve presented our insights and conclusions in a white paper called “Taking Control of Employee Healthcare Costs," and circulated it to our partners, colleagues, and business associates. We feel that you and any of your employers looking to review their overall strategy can benefit from hearing about our approach and what we’ve learned. You can access it here. Since that time, we’ve witnessed positive results in our employee health plan, including declining PMPM healthcare costs, increased employee HSA contributions, as well as higher PCP adoption. Most significantly, we’ve seen employees making better informed choices and taking greater control of their healthcare decisions.


There’s a lot to talk about. We believe that our experience can provide helpful information and guidance to any employer looking at their healthcare options. If you haven’t had this discussion with your clients yet, let us help. Contact George Tager (401 644-3169 cell) or Jay Heimgartner (401 465-4902 cell).
