Mid-sized employers face growing pressure to offer competitive women\u2019s health and family building benefits without the infrastructure of larger organizations. Integrated models help lean teams reduce administrative complexity, improve outcomes, and better defend the value of their spend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By Russ Freyman, Group Vice President, Mid-Market Sales, Progyny <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Family building benefits have become table stakes. But for mid-sized employers, they\u2019re also becoming a major source of complexity and risk, as benefit leaders are being asked to deliver enterprise-level benefits without enterprise-level resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If this isn\u2019t difficult enough, today\u2019s employee base is more informed and opinionated than ever about their health and wellness needs. I\u2019ve spoken to candidates and former colleagues, for example, who won\u2019t even consider joining an organization that does not adequately support family building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Meeting the needs of employees while ensuring benefit programs do not break the bank has led many organizations to add a patchwork of point solutions, each of which comes with their own set of promises. Unfortunately, these additions also create unintended complexity, like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n And when the data from various solutions doesn\u2019t talk to one another, it becomes just about impossible to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fragmentation doesn\u2019t only create administrative burden for under\u2011sized HR teams; it also increases financial risk, limits cost predictability, and leaves employees searching for the right level of care during some of the most emotional and complicated moments in their lives\u2014when clarity and support matter most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Most mid-sized employers with whom I speak recognize these issues, but unraveling the status quo and finding something better is not necessarily simple. This is where an integrated approach makes a meaningful difference. By bringing women\u2019s health, family building, and high\u2011risk maternity together, Progyny can help mid-sized employers reduce complexity and program spend while delivering a more seamless experience for employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
