Collaboration, transparency, and a seat at the table

EdHEALTH is the preferred healthcare solution for faculty, staff, and their  family members

The principles we commit to

Innovation

EdHEALTH is the innovative healthcare solution for educational institutions and their faculty, staff, and family members. Our self-insured offerings are tailored to meet the needs of our members. Through data analysis, cutting-edge programs, and decision support, we help educational institutions select programs that meet their needs while containing rising healthcare costs.

Ownership

EdHEALTH is a member-owned consortium run by and for its member institutions. Member owners share and learn from one another. Ask any of our members and they’ll tell you -- collaboration is a key benefit of belonging to edHEALTH.

Transparency

Health insurance works when members are in the know. EdHEALTH’s transparent approach means schools are in the know about all rate components. Members enjoy direct access to plan administrators. And, our collaborative approach enables colleges and universities to compare cost utilization, trends, and best practices with other member schools.

Savings

Through our purchasing clout, we consistently negotiate lower fees with less volatility than the skyrocketing healthcare cost trends experienced across the industry. Best of all -- member institutions share in the savings. The result: employee satisfaction, high quality of care, and valuable savings you can pass along to students and families.

EdHEALTH is growing in numbers and expanding in services

Originally Massachusetts-based, edHEALTH is now poised to expand across the country. With multiple plan design configurations, stop-loss, and regional and national Third-Party Administrators (TPAs), member/owner colleges, universities, private and charter schools have an array of choices to meet their unique needs. New targeted population health initiatives help us improve quality of care and reduce costs.

Working with edHEALTH gave me a renewed appreciation for true partnership. Together, this coalition has experienced direct costs savings and better risk planning with minimal disruption to participants. They are a model of the positive change we can make when you link thought provoking and progressive ideas with the drive to implement them.
