Why Reform Insurance Design?
• “Consumer-driven” plans aim to make the consumer more aware of the cost of healthcare with high deductibles and cost-sharing
• Enrollment in high deductible plans nearly doubled between 2008-2014 in CT
• Employers save money on premiums with high deductible plans, but consumers tend to put off needed care

VBID is an employee benefit plan approach
used by small and large, fully- and self-
insured employers to lower or eliminate
financial barriers to, or introduce rewards for
preventive care, medication adherence,
chronic disease management, and high-
quality provider selection. (Fendrick, Mark, MD. Value-Based Insurance Design Landscape Digest, University of Michigan Center for Value-Based Insurance Design, July 2009.)
What is Value-based Insurance Design?
![Page 9: Value-Based Insurance Design (VBID) Overview · SIM Program Goals & Components for VBID Initiative 3. What is VBID? 2. Why Reform Insurance Design? ... (2012) VBID is an employee](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022071500/611f38f616d6ee6a5426b1e8/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
New and innovative approaches
...the use of plan incentives to encourage employee adoption of one or more of the following:
Value-based Insurance Design
Use high value services (e.g., preventative services, certain prescription drugs)

Existing Connecticut VBIDs
• State of Connecticut and other large employers in CT have adopted VBID models
• State Health Enhancement Program began in 2011 • Lower premiums in exchange for preventive
care • Care Management Programs for chronic
disease with reduced or waived copayments

Barriers to VBID Uptake
•Uptake has been gradual •Barriers include capacity for employers to:
•quantify return on investment •measure outcomes •determine value •perform actuarial analysis to set copayments •Manage administrative burden caused by variable VBIDs across plans
