Under this unique affiliation with Everside, employers or other plan sponsors pay a fixed cost per employee for nearly unlimited access to primary care providers within co-branded, conveniently located near-site health centers. This approach, a complement to employer-sponsored insurance plans, allows members to receive convenient, low- or no-cost access to physicians and 24/7 virtual care, reducing the need for costly emergency room use. On average, employers working with Everside save 17% on claims costs by year three and 31% by year five – largely due to Everside’s ability to treat health issues early before they require more expensive urgent care.
“By partnering with Everside, we are once again committing to improving the health of our community in the greater Cincinnati area,” Tim Cappel, executive director of corporate health solutions at The Christ Hospital Health Network. “The pandemic highlighted the need for everyone to have a primary care provider in order to help maintain healthy habits and work on preventative measures to improve their quality of life.”

“Employers have few effective choices when it comes to healthcare delivery options,” said Chris Miller, CEO of Everside Health. “Our new partnership with The Christ Hospital Health Network is designed to change the status quo in employers’ favor by bringing together our proven direct primary care model and advanced technology – a complete care solution inclusive of in-person and virtual primary care, mental healthcare, physical therapy and more – with Christ Hospital’s history of innovation and research.”
Everside has a long history of successfully collaborating with health and hospital systems, medical schools and other healthcare organizations to deliver accessible, high-quality care while lowering costs for employers and their employees, including their previously announced collaboration with MSU Health Care in July 2021.
