On-site Healthcare
The interest in on-site health clinics has increased considerably in recent years due to dramatic surges in healthcare spending. Employers must find innovative methods of controlling the direct costs associated with healthcare, while improving access and quality of care for their employees. In response, many employers are shifting their focus to health promotion and wellness, and an array of primary care services employees can access through on-site health clinics.
On-site clinics foster a dedicated doctor-patient relationship that helps manage medical costs for employers and employees. As additional benefits become more transparent, these clinics will continue to grow in popularity.
