Highlight Health is redefining cost containment for self-funded health plans, participants, and stop-loss carriers. We save money for plans and participants, while assisting plan sponsors in fulfilling their fiduciary duties. We are an independent, nationally recognized healthcare cost containment company that uses innovative technology and sound industry knowledge and experience, to drive success. Our combination of expertise and technology sets the industry standard for independent healthcare cost containment and guidance services.

We focus on costly claims

A $100,000 claim can stress some self-funded plans, yet more and more claims exceed a million dollars.  Even when a claim is covered by stop loss, the self-funded plan ultimately pays the price.  Fraud, waste, abuse, overbilling, and overpricing make large claims bigger than they need to be.

We offer independent, data-driven repricing

We work for self-funded health plans and we don’t have conflicting contracts that prevent us sharing all the cost containment strategies appropriate to the specifics of each claim.

We maximize savings through expertise

We have a people-first approach to technology. Our technology is powered by our subject matter experts. Our experts sign and defend our work.

We protect plan funds, deliver ROI

Our clients save money and gain satisfaction from being responsible fiduciaries of plan funds. Through Highlight Health they gain the ability to identify fraud, waste, abuse, overbilling, and overpricing. Most of our fees are based upon a percentage of savings, guaranteeing alignment of interests and return on investment.

What is Highlight Health? Highlight Health is a mission-driven organization that works with self-funded health plans — including plan sponsors and members — to help all parties save money and avoid overpaying for health bills.

What is a Self-Funded Health Plan? Put simply, a self-funded health plan is one in which the employer (or union or other organization) takes on the financial risk of paying healthcare claims for members of the plan. Our self-funded plan clients include health plans sponsored by employers, unions, associations, and government entities in many different industries.

How Can Highlight Health Help Me? While we primarily work with your employer or union to ensure that their health bills have been appropriately priced, the goal is that both the health plan and its members benefit from cost savings driven by Highlight Health. As part of these efforts, Highlight Health may reach out to you for more information in order to maximize your savings.
