HealthJoy Partners with Employer Direct Healthcare to Enhance Surgery Network for Employers

HealthJoy, a renowned care navigation platform, has announced a strategic partnership with Employer Direct Healthcare (EDH), aimed at providing employer clients with significantly lower surgery rates and access to specialized care. This collaboration introduces the SurgeryPlus® network to HealthJoy’s platform, offering potentially substantial cost savings and access to quality healthcare for employers and their employees.

The partnership is set to benefit HealthJoy's clientele, especially smaller companies with under 10,000 employees, by granting them access to EDH’s specialty network and Center of Excellence capabilities. Historically, such benefits were only available to large national accounts. HealthJoy's approach ensures employee engagement in healthcare, promising a potential 2-3x increase in solution utilization.

EDH’s SurgeryPlus network boasts a highly selective group of specialists across over 157 metropolitan areas in the U.S. The network is noted for its impressive results in cost savings for both employees and employers, alongside its proven track record of high-quality care. Doug Morse-Schindler, President and co-founder of HealthJoy, emphasized the value this partnership brings to their clients, highlighting the seamless access to quality surgical providers and the significant cost savings involved.

This collaboration underscores both HealthJoy’s and EDH’s commitment to improving access to quality, cost-effective healthcare solutions. With EDH's SurgeryPlus network, employers are positioned to offer their workforce affordable and convenient access to surgical care without compromising quality. The partnership is expected to make significant strides in healthcare management for employers and their employees nationwide.
