Greetings, Beginning with today’s issue, we’ll be featuring an ongoing series (INSIDE LOOK) at how one US-based employer is approaching the prospect of adding medical travel to its benefits option. This will be a watch-it-as-it-unfolds type of series and one that will surely be of interest to other employers, benefits managers, insurance brokers, hospitals, and facilitators, as it will examine the entire decision-making process. We’re grateful to Sam Shallenberger, CFO of RJ Young and Alex Tolbert of Bernard Health for allowing us to track the progress. Readers are welcome to offer suggestions and comments throughout. As always, we welcome your comments, story ideas, and press releases. Cheers, Amanda Haar, Editor [email protected]
