NASHVILLE, Tenn. (PRWEB)

MDsave, the nation’s leading online purchasing platform for healthcare procedures, is implementing a revolutionary new technology that creates a better member experience to meet the healthcare needs of employers — employers like the University of Central Oklahoma (UCO).

UCO employees and their dependents have relied on more traditional channels to access and purchase medical care. This process sometimes delayed employees and their families from receiving care and or resulted in unexpected costs.

BOK Financial Insurance (BOKFI), an employee benefits consultancy, identified the MDsave for Employers platform as an innovative solution that could bring exclusive cost savings and price transparency to UCO. The MDsave for Employers platform enables employers and employees to compare and purchase affordable medical procedures and services exclusively from MDsave’s partnered local hospitals and providers.

Diane Feinberg, vice president for people and culture for UCO, spoke of the partnership as an extension of the University’s commitment to excellence: “Caring for our faculty and staff is among our top priorities at UCO, and an important component of that care is continuing to improve the quality of our benefits. We look forward to MDsave enhancing our faculty and staff’s healthcare benefits.”

“This offering further expands UCO’s commitment to bring quality, transparent care to UCO employees with ease and accessibility, and removes the need for go-between service providers that create wait times and lack transparency,” said BOK Financial Insurance consultant, Jessica Beames. “We’re excited to further enhance the breadth of benefits available to UCO employees and their families.”

“UCO is on the forefront of employers inventing new ways to increase their employees’ access to healthcare,” said Charlie Byrge, chief revenue officer for MDsave. “The MDsave for Employers platform removes a lot of the barriers that cause excess medical costs, and UCO and BOKFI are using that technology to empower patients to stay physically and financially healthy.”
