– Clinical 360+ designed to improve health access and outcomes –
WELLESLEY, Mass., Sept. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Sun Life U.S. today launched Clinical 360+, a stop-loss program that gives members access to personalized resources, tools and care services to help them better stay on top of their health. This new offering expands the company's original Clinical 360 program that uses data and clinical expertise to find cost savings and care services for stop-loss employer clients and their employees.
"Our Clinical 360+ program adopts a comprehensive strategy to increase early care intervention and connect members to care resources, giving them more control over their health," said Jennifer Collier, president, Health and Risk Solutions, Sun Life U.S. "Against the backdrop of high healthcare costs and inadequate access to services, finding suitable care can be stressful. Our new multipronged solution streamlines the process while positively affecting health outcomes for our members."
Using insights from Sun Life's annual High-Cost Claims and Injectable Trends Analysis report, Clinical 360+ brings together care programs in one, easy app in collaboration with specialized health partners. This allows members and their dependents to directly interact with clinicians and resources tailored to their specific health needs, including:
- A specialty and infusion drug program that provides members with their medications in a convenient and safe setting, including their own home.
- At-home kidney and heart care management programs that identify care opportunities for those with chronic or end-stage kidney disease or congestive heart failure.
- A musculoskeletal condition program providing virtual clinical intervention that is convenient and personalized for those facing back issues and other musculoskeletal conditions.
- Access to care advocacy and navigation via Sun Life Health Navigator, which provides members with clinical guidance and support to access appropriate care from qualified providers.
- Sun Life's newly launched mobile app, Sun Life Health 360, which connects all Clinical 360+ health programs and provides mental health resources, interactive tools, healthy habit tracking, fitness challenges, and a library of physician-reviewed health and wellness content.
Clinical 360+ is available to small-to-mid-sized self-insured employers that use a third-party administrator to manage their claims, billing, and plan designs.
Sun Life, the largest independent stop-loss provider in the U.S., covers high-dollar claims for self-insured customers who pay for the health services of their employees using their own funds rather than purchasing insurance. In 2023, the Kaiser Family Foundation's Health Benefits Survey found that 65% of covered employees in the country are enrolled in self-funded plans.
