– Clinical 360+ designed to improve health
access and outcomes –
WELLESLEY, Mass., Sept. 23,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Sun Life U.S. today launched
Clinical 360+, a stop-loss program that gives members access to
personalized resources, tools and care services to help them better
stay on top of their health. This new offering expands the
company's original Clinical 360 program that uses data and clinical
expertise to find cost savings and care services for stop-loss
employer clients and their employees.
"Our Clinical 360+ program adopts a comprehensive strategy to
increase early care intervention and connect members to care
resources, giving them more control over their health," said
Jennifer Collier, president, Health
and Risk Solutions, Sun Life U.S. "Against the backdrop of high
healthcare costs and inadequate access to services, finding
suitable care can be stressful. Our new multipronged solution
streamlines the process while positively affecting health outcomes
for our members."
Using insights from Sun Life's annual High-Cost Claims and
Injectable Trends Analysis report, Clinical 360+ brings together
care programs in one, easy app in collaboration with specialized
health partners. This allows members and their dependents to
directly interact with clinicians and resources tailored to their
specific health needs, including:
- A specialty and infusion drug program that provides
members with their medications in a convenient and safe setting,
including their own home.
- At-home kidney and heart care management programs that
identify care opportunities for those with chronic or end-stage
kidney disease or congestive heart failure.
- A musculoskeletal condition program providing virtual
clinical intervention that is convenient and personalized for those
facing back issues and other musculoskeletal conditions.
- Access to care advocacy and navigation via Sun Life Health
Navigator, which provides members with clinical guidance and
support to access appropriate care from qualified providers.
- Sun Life's newly launched mobile app, Sun Life Health
360, which connects all Clinical 360+ health programs and
provides mental health resources, interactive tools, healthy habit
tracking, fitness challenges, and a library of physician-reviewed
health and wellness content.
Clinical 360+ is available to small-to-mid-sized self-insured
employers that use a third-party administrator to manage their
claims, billing, and plan designs.
Sun Life, the largest independent stop-loss provider in the
U.S., covers high-dollar claims for self-insured customers who pay
for the health services of their employees using their own funds
rather than purchasing insurance. In 2023, the Kaiser Family
Foundation's Health Benefits Survey found that 65%
of covered employees in the country are enrolled in
self-funded plans.
