Corporate Services
Isn’t it about time that our local companies have the same services and advantages as the “big city” firms. One step in that direction is concierge medical care. Yes, we finally have directed personal care for ourselves and our employees right here in Greater Hartford. A much needed trend that has been sweeping across the metropolitan areas of the US. What is it and what can it do for my company?
Concierge Medicine is personally driven healthcare with 24/7 access to your physician. To be competitive in today’s business environment requires quality employees who are at their best. Personal Care Physicians believes that a healthy workforce is a necessity for success. Unfortunately, the current healthcare environment does not always operate with this in mind. Every organization has specific healthcare needs and businesses of all types suffer costly consequences when faced with the short falls in the system. These short falls result in:
- Ineffective time away from work waiting for doctors
- Widened exposure to illness in overcrowded waiting rooms
- Stressful work environments can lead to unnecessary illness which occur because of a lack of preventative measures
- Prolonged absence due to limited availability of healthcare and little individual attention
Medical expenses for a business go well beyond the cost of insurance. They are compounded by absence and inefficiency of sick employees. Personal Care Physicians focuses on wellness and prevention which allows for the avoidance of illness or the early detection of illness and faster, stronger recovery. Our wellness program includes physician directed nutrition and exercise programs tailored to individual work environments and schedules. Wellness as part of the corporate structure enables a workforce to be at its best. Below are just a few of the ways Personal Care Physicians can help guide your company to a healthier lifestyle while stretching your long-term healthcare dollar:
- Same day appointments to ensure health issues are addressed early
- All appointments are scheduled with a “no waiting time philosophy” so valuable time is not wasted sitting in waiting rooms
- In office private telephone and internet room designed for you and your employees to stay in touch while visiting our office
- Phone or email consultations for non-urgent medical issues
- Office and house calls when appropriate
- We will arrange to come to your office to give flu vaccines
- Individualized nutrition and fitness plans that are developed to fit work environments and schedules
Personal Care Physicians can help you to establish your company as a preferred place to work which takes every step in caring for its employees. This can help attract high quality employees in your industry. These amenities foster loyalty among employees which is essential in retaining top performers and key personnel.
Your organization may offer the option of membership in Personal Care Physicians as a paid or partially paid benefit to employees. Your organization may also offer employees access to a Health Care Reimbursement Account, Flexible Spending Account, or Medical Savings Account as part of a benefits package. The annual membership may be reimbursed through group health plans pursuant to Sections 105 and 106 of the Internal Revenue Code, or cafeteria plans under section 125 of the Internal Revenue Code.
