How It Works

Our care navigation solution helps walk employees through the process to select care.

Accessing the search tool directly from the Benefitplace homepage, employees simply indicate what type of care they’re looking for (e.g., back pain) and where.

Using one of the nation’s largest claims database and over 500 cost and quality metrics, Garner DataProTM identifies top-performing, in-network doctors for the type of care being sought.

Employees get a personalized list of top-performing, in-network doctors with upcoming availability, plus access to quality score details and patient reviews.

Search results can also integrate and highlight any relevant digital health care point solutions you have in place, helping to drive engagement in those programs.
