Human resource leaders had to reexamine their employee benefits offerings amid the pandemic, with greater emphasis on improving employee health and well-being instead of boosting productivity, a recent survey across industries commissioned by Artemis Health shows. But often, these leaders lack the data insights to craft competitive benefits packages — and it’s holding them back from their larger goals.
It’s not that HR leaders don’t have the data to create benefits programs that help them stay ahead of the curve. In fact, they have a treasure trove of data, from healthcare claims data to employee risk scores, health assessments, absenteeism, point solution performance and more. The problem is that they struggle to find insights within the data that lead to clear action. More than half of benefits leaders surveyed also don’t trust the accuracy of the data they receive from health plans or vendors, while one in three struggle to connect the data they receive from various sources.
