In this guide, we explore how healthcare cost-containment strategies—especially through Roundstone’s group captive—can help you spend smarter, improve outcomes, and future-proof your employee benefits.
Healthcare costs have surged 28.6% since 2020, making health insurance the second-largest business expense after payroll. For employers, this is much more than a budget issue. It’s a threat to profitability, growth, and talent retention.
Traditional fully insured health plans offer little relief. They bundle costs, limit plan design flexibility, and deliver double-digit premium increases with no transparency into what’s driving expenses. Without claims data, you’re flying blind—unable to act on rising costs or implement solutions.
Roundstone’s self-funded group captive model puts employers back in control. With access to detailed claims data, flexible plan design, and the power of shared risk, companies using our approach have reduced healthcare costs by up to 34% while delivering better benefits to their employees.
