How employers can cut Physician Gap costs

Accolade closes the gap

Research confirms that people often wait 26 days or more to see a doctor. While they’re waiting, they’re dealing with worsening symptoms, trying to coordinate their own care, and choosing to visit an ER or urgent care. This leads to higher costs, disappointing experiences, and negative outcomes. Physician-led advocacy closes gaps in access, care coordination, health equity, and data connectivity to deliver better health.

Download the infographic for a quick look at how you can reduce care wait times and ensure your employees have access to integrated, high-quality, whole-person healthcare.
