    Predicting Your Health Care Expenses: Technology and healthcare

    Employers have total control when it comes to creating and maintaining a culture of health within their population. The most innovative employers are no longer taking health care increases in stride, but rather seizing control by leveraging technology to predict and influence their health care costs. These leading-edge companies are not just modeling hypothetical scenarios when it comes to their population’s health, they are applying what physicians have been doing for years on a wider scale, using readily available data that most all companies have on hand today. These advanced companies have learned to take de-identified health data, drive personalized health interventions to their employees by connecting them to their Health Ecosystem, and essentially influence their future health care costs.

    Make Pensions Communications Engaging: Here's how to do that

    With the number of defined benefit plans in decline, pension provision through defined contribution arrangements is very much the norm. However, engagement from employees is needed if this form of saving is to produce a satisfactory outcome for both employees and employers. When defined benefit pensions were standard, engagement was not so critical. Effective communication was about informing and, perhaps, encouraging appreciation of the value of the benefit.
