Through the collaboration, clients will gain improved access to top-tier specialty care—including surgeries, cancer treatments, and substance use care—with little to no out-of-pocket costs for patients. The initiative is also expected to help employers reduce healthcare spending by up to 45% on surgeries and substance abuse treatment, and up to 30% on cancer care.
In addition to cost savings, Carrum Health offers care coordinators who assist patients in selecting the best providers, transferring medical records, and scheduling procedures, alleviating administrative burdens for both patients and employers.
“We’re thrilled to partner with Carrum Health to help more families access high-quality care without worrying about unexpected costs,” said Jim Hartz, Senior Vice President and National Employee Benefits Practice Leader at AssuredPartners. “This partnership reflects our commitment to delivering innovative solutions that support our clients and their employees every day.”
Sach Jain, Founder and CEO of Carrum Health, emphasized the growing importance of specialty care management for employers. “Access to high-quality care and the best patient experience at lower costs remain top concerns for employees and employers alike,” said Jain. “Roughly half of employer healthcare costs come from specialty care, and our mission is to ensure members receive the best treatment while eliminating financial stress. Partnering with AssuredPartners allows us to bring this solution to more employers and their members nationwide.”
The partnership marks a significant step forward in efforts to make specialty care more affordable, accessible, and efficient for employers and their employees across the country.
