Access to Health: Will care be there when we need it?
Watch our panel of Sun Life leaders as they discuss these issues
Our complex U.S. healthcare system is experiencing access challenges, a situation that is becoming increasingly pervasive across the U.S. This concern impacts employers who are called upon to advocate for employees, and whose businesses are impacted by reduced productivity, prolonged absences, and increased medical costs.
Feedback to the Access to Health webinar
“Good solutions to a very important problem. What resonated was the access to care, which I'm already seeing as a problem with employees.”
“With all the changes that the pandemic has forced on care givers, patients, medical staff, etc., it is truly wonderful to see how Sun Life is working to help find answers for each of the sectors that make up the 'health care universe'. THANK YOU!!!!”
“Very timely topic. I don't think enough thought is given to the provider shortage and access issues we will experience as the result of covid and the aging population.”
In an increasingly competitive labor market, prospective employees may be more attracted to benefits that facilitate access to increasingly scarce care.
Sun Life is preparing for this challenge, to help you manage risk and offer a strong, health-aligned benefits portfolio. Our Sun Life US. businesses work collaboratively to bring innovative solutions that help expand access to healthcare and benefits, reduce costs, and improve outcomes.
