In <a href=\"https:\/\/roundstoneinsurance.com\/excelsior\/blog\/behavioral-and-mental-health-trends\/\">part 1<\/a>, we discussed the importance of providing a highly personalized benefits plan that serves the uniqueness of a workforce population. Now, let&#8217;s look into the implications of behavioral trends for employers and how they can create a supportive environment for their employees through enhancements to their company&#8217;s health plan.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>What Behavioral Health Trends Mean for Employers<\/h2>\n<p>Shifting behavioral health trends will continue to impact employers and their employee health insurance plans. Employers must take a proactive stance to eliminate the stigma around using mental health benefits, prioritize employees\u2019 well-being, and make sure employees understand they have options to mitigate negative outcomes through well-rounded employee health benefits with behavioral health insurance coverage.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To meet the needs highlighted by current behavioral health trends, employers should modify their coverages to address mental health insurance vs. out-of-pocket costs for counseling services, addiction treatment, and telehealth services. Expanding access to these services through an employee assistance program (EAP) should be a key component of employer benefit plans.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Employers should also consider offering services that use technology-assisted counseling and coaching and those that address the needs of marginalized communities.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Better Access to Mental Health Services in a Company Health Plan<\/h3>\n<p>When building your company&#8217;s insurance benefit plan, focus on elements that boost access to mental health services for all employees. Offering easily accessible maintenance and preventative mental health care, like telehealth and counseling services, can help all employees get early care and interventions for mental health crises.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Easily accessible mental health services can help prevent issues from worsening, leading to improved employees\u2019 well-being and lower costs for treatments. This <a href=\"https:\/\/roundstoneinsurance.com\/excelsior\/behavioral-and-mental-health-cost-containment-strategies\/\">saves money and prioritizes the health and well-being of your employees<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In practice, increased access to behavioral health services can mean removing financial barriers by eliminating or reducing copays for preventative care and ongoing treatment.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Employee wellness programs can also include educational resources on what the plan covers, such as trauma-informed care, youth and family-centered counseling, and single-session interventions, and where to find services. This makes care easier to find and more affordable for all employees to use when they need it.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/roundstoneinsurance.com\/excelsior\/hr-guide-to-self-funding\/?__mscta=3325_100652_13181\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-50222 size-full\" style=\"width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/roundstoneinsurance.com\/excelsior\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/take-control-with-self-funding-cta.png\" alt=\"take control with self-funding cta\" width=\"1800\" height=\"514\" srcset=\"https:\/\/roundstoneinsurance.com\/excelsior\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/take-control-with-self-funding-cta.png 1800w, https:\/\/roundstoneinsurance.com\/excelsior\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/take-control-with-self-funding-cta-300x86.png 300w, https:\/\/roundstoneinsurance.com\/excelsior\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/take-control-with-self-funding-cta-1024x292.png 1024w, https:\/\/roundstoneinsurance.com\/excelsior\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/take-control-with-self-funding-cta-768x219.png 768w, https:\/\/roundstoneinsurance.com\/excelsior\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/take-control-with-self-funding-cta-1536x439.png 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Telehealth Services<\/h3>\n<p>Virtual access to care is a key component of an accessible employer healthcare plan. In 2022, <a href=\"https:\/\/mhealthintelligence.com\/news\/38-of-patients-have-received-virtual-care-in-2022\">38% of care was virtual<\/a>. Even though usage has fallen somewhat since the pandemic, it remains high and can be a valuable asset in expanding employee accessibility to care.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/roundstoneinsurance.com\/excelsior\/blog\/telehealth-coverage-inspires-trust-in-health-insurance-plans\/\">Telehealth services have become an essential part of any employee health insurance plan<\/a>, whether for primary care physicians or mental health professionals. Telehealth is more convenient for members, eliminating the need to make an in-person appointment, take time off work, drive to a facility, and sit in a waiting room to receive care.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Your employee benefits plan should cover telehealth visits with physical and mental health providers, with a focus on services that use technologies like DTx and AI-assisted diagnosis for well-rounded care. Offer these with a reduced copay over in-person sessions and subsidize the use of apps employees can use to boost mental health and at-home management.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Promotion of Employee Wellness Programs<\/h3>\n<p>Employee wellness programs provide resources (and incentives) to help members live healthier lifestyles. These programs encourage members to engage in behavior that can improve their physical health \u2014 like regular primary care visits and routine workouts. Providing members the resources to improve their physical well-being can <a href=\"https:\/\/health.gov\/news\/202112\/physical-activity-good-mind-and-body\">have positive effects<\/a> on their emotional and mental health, which can substantially reduce the cost of employee health insurance over time.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Thoughtful, well-rounded <a href=\"https:\/\/roundstoneinsurance.com\/excelsior\/blog\/how-to-incentivize-engagement-in-an-employee-well-being-program\/\">well-being plans<\/a> promote employee retention and can improve physical health outcomes. They can also support behavioral health with education on issues like substance use, access to resources for those with language or cultural-specific needs, and encouragement for using well-being apps like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.calm.com\/\">Calm<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.anxietycanada.com\/resources\/mindshift-cbt\/\">MindShift CBT<\/a>, which can help with stress management.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Self-Funded Health Benefits: Flexibility and Choice for Employers<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-54660\" style=\"width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/roundstoneinsurance.com\/excelsior\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/2024-painted-on-a-road.jpeg\" alt=\"2024 painted on a road\" width=\"885\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/roundstoneinsurance.com\/excelsior\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/2024-painted-on-a-road.jpeg 885w, https:\/\/roundstoneinsurance.com\/excelsior\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/2024-painted-on-a-road-300x153.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/roundstoneinsurance.com\/excelsior\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/2024-painted-on-a-road-768x391.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 885px) 100vw, 885px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For employers with 25 or more employees, <a href=\"https:\/\/roundstoneinsurance.com\/excelsior\/who-we-serve\/\">self-funded health insurance in a group captive can be more affordable and more flexible<\/a> than traditional (fully insured) health insurance plans.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Under a group stop-loss captive, a self-funded plan allows you the freedom to build your own personalized benefits plan \u2014 a plan tailored to your workforce \u2014 and can help you attract and retain talent.\u00a0 The group captive model allows mid-market and small businesses to share risk.
