Consumer-Driven Health (CHD) Plan

We offer an alternative solution for large employers looking for the most cost-effective, high-quality health care plan possible. By their very design, Consumer-Driven Health plans engage consumers by imparting incentives, education, and the tools necessary to make informed decisions on the best ways to manage their own health care. The program is designed to transform “passive participants” into value-conscious consumers and is revolutionizing the health care industry. One tool that UHC offers is an online Health Cost Estimator. This integrated online calculator helps members review the quality and efficiency ratings of providers while estimating the cost of common treatments and procedures. Help your members know the 4 P’s when shopping for health care. Know their procedure, Know their provider, Know their price and Know the place.
