Lowering health insurance costs for employees and employers while supporting the Amarillo economy.
A Systematic Approach to Simplify, Optimize, and Revolutionize Your Health Insurance Plan.
Why?
You're paying more for health insurance, and your employees' deductibles are skyrocketing. Here's the truth: it's not working. Employees and employers alike are paying more and getting less.
Instead of funneling money to profit-driven insurers who prioritize their bottom line over your employees' health, we can keep the money in our community and deliver better health outcomes.
There's a proven, better way to provide employer health plans. The groundwork is already laid, and Amarillo-based employers can implement this solution today.
What?
Maverick-style Health Plans are fully-compliant, level-funded health plans that feel just like the plans you buy every year, but without the confusing networks, denials of care, and faceless support.
Employers can adopt this as your only health plan (a "full replace") or add it as an option alongside your existing self-funded plan (a "Tier $0 offering").
How?
Self-funded health insurance gives employers control over benefits and cost savings, unlike fully insured plans that prioritize profits over care.
By going self-funded, employers can customize benefits, support Direct Primary Care, and negotiate upfront cash prices with providers. This approach eliminates middlemen, saves money, and ensures fair rates for local providers.
Who?
