The women's and family health benefits market has grown increasingly complex. All of the vendors are making the same promises about comprehensive solutions, large provider networks, and improved outcomes.
Many employers believe they're forced to make trade-offs: lower cost or better care, technology or human support, global scale or local expertise. In reality, those trade-offs aren't market constraints, they're signals of outdated or incomplete models.
In this panel, Maven Clinic Board Member Rachel Winokur, Maven CFO Katie Rooney, and Mercer Senior Principal Lindsay Bower come together to cut through the noise and help employers evaluate the market more clearly. Drawing on perspectives from investment, operations, and benefits consulting, they'll unpack why certain assumptions persist, what separates outcomes-driven models from coverage-only benefits, and what sophisticated buyers are asking vendors today.
Join to learn:
- Why the trade-offs employers face reflect vendor limitations, not the limits of what's possible
- How to evaluate women's and family health benefits through the lens of total cost of care rather than program cost alone
- What sophisticated benefits buyers are asking vendors—and which answers should raise red flags
- A framework for selecting a benefits partner that delivers measurable clinical and business outcomes
