<blog-icon-title>The journey towards consumer-driven health<blog-icon-title>

(CDH) is an important one for both employers and employees. But what exactly motivates this shift? Let's explore together.

Imagine you're a new graduate, a mother of one, and you have three enticing job offers on the table. It's not just about making a career move  - it's about making decisions that impact your health. Often overlooked, the choices you make now will determine your primary care physician, your child's pediatrician, and all your healthcare providers.

<blog-icon-title>Traditionally, most employers make these crucial decisions for you.<blog-icon-title>

They select your health insurance carrier which dictates the network and providers available to you. While it has never made sense for someone else to make life-changing decisions for you, today we have something to do about it. We now have the freedom to choose almost everything, from our Uber driver to our vacation rental. So why shouldn't we have the flexibility to choose our PCP and pediatrician too?

<blog-icon-title>This is where the Individual Coverage Health Reimbursement Arrangement (ICHRA) comes into play.<blog-icon-title>

You may want to prefer an employer that does have an ICHRA program. This will allow you to take control of your and your family’s health. With an ICHRA, you get a ‘healthcare allowance’ - and with the assistance of Zorro, you can now decide on your preferred network and providers leveraging intelligent data-driven support.

Here are some quick suggestions to help you choose your preferred providers:

1. Check out the Zorro platform 

Make sure the plan you are selecting covers your preferred doctor. Zorro provides a user-friendly platform that allows you to compare and evaluate various health plans including their costs, network coverages, and included benefits such as HSAs.

2. Find a doctor with expertise that meets your health needs 

Consider the specialties and experience of healthcare providers. Look for professionals who align with your specific needs and can provide the best care for you and your family.

3. Think about logistics

Consider factors such as the proximity of the provider's office to your home or workplace, their office hours, and language preferences. Ensuring convenience and accessibility will make managing your healthcare needs easier.

4. Online reviews

Read reviews and feedback from other patients to gain insights into the quality of care provided by different healthcare providers. This can help you make an informed decision and find a provider who aligns with your expectations.
