Save on High-Value Surgeries for Your Employees around the U.S.

[ ]  Do you manage benefits for at least 10,000 employees in the US?

[ ]  Is your workforce distributed in areas throughout the country?

[ ]  Do you want to provide high-quality outcomes while paying less for joint replacement, spine and bariatric surgeries?


If you answer “YES” to these questions, you need to consider participating in the Employers Center of Excellence Network (ECEN).

It’s a program recommended by 98% of the patients who have participated at companies like Walmart, Lowes and McKesson! 

ECEN has negotiated payment rates for high-quality surgical care for specific high-cost procedures at some of the top hospitals in the country.

Hear more about what ECEN can do for you and your employees!
