$109,432 a year. That’s how much one organization saved on a *single employee* when PinnacleRx Solutions took a closer look at the prescription details. And that’s just one employee. We do this for hundreds of employees, helping companies save millions. How? Simple: by rolling up our sleeves, digging into claims data, and uncovering the savings others miss. This is what sets PinnacleRx Solutions apart. The big PBMs don’t delve into the details. We do (and we love it). Because we know the details are where the true savings, and true value, lie. #HealthcareSavings #PharmacyBenefits #CostContainment #PinnaclePerspective

Want to save on healthcare costs? Here’s a rule of thumb we’ve noticed: The biggest wins often come from the least-flashy work. Medical bill review. Building a smart plan. Out-of-network negotiation. These might not be “shiny new objects,” but they drive real savings for our clients. In fact, Pinnacle clients see 68% average savings on out-of-network claims. And with claims under $5,000 (96% of them), Pinnacle takes on the responsibility directly. That’s how real cost containment happens: digging into the details, line by line. Maybe it’s not flashy to some. But smart savings and better healthcare will always be shiny to us. ✨ #HealthcareCosts #MedicalBillReview #SelfFunding #HealthInsurance #CostContainment

🤔 Still weighing the pros and cons of moving from a fully-insured health plan to a self-funded one? For many employers, the biggest advantage is simple: control over your own destiny. Rather than paying fixed premiums regardless of the claims, self-funding lets you pay for the care your employees actually use. That translates into… — Savings — Flexibility — More visibility Maybe it’s not right for every organization. But for many, self-funding opens the door to smarter plan design—and more use from your employees. #SelfFunding #SelfFundedHealthInsurance #HealthInsurance

Do you know what a “gag clause” is? If not, it can potentially cost your health plan hundreds of thousands of dollars in penalties. Meet the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021. In this legislation, group health plans (like self-insured employer plans) are prohibited from agreeing to any contract language with the following limits: 📝 Accessing de-identified claims and encounter data electronically. 📝 Sharing that data with third parties for plan administration or quality improvement. 📝 Sharing provider cost or quality of care data with members, providers, or business associates. But that’s not all. Plans have to attest that they have no such clauses in their contracts. And they have to do so every year. If you miss the December 31st deadline for that attestation, penalties can reach… ⚠️ $100 per day, per participant. That’s why you need a few best practices (see below). Transparency in healthcare starts with compliance. But it’s not compliance alone. This is your reminder that you can turn regulatory requirements into strategic benefits. Lower your costs. Negotiate smarter. Empower employees to make better healthcare decisions. Do it right, and you’ll never have to worry about the gag clause. #HealthPlanCompliance #CAA21 #SelfFundedCare #EmployerBenefits #PinnacleDifference
