Often providers with the best outcomes are specialized, smaller practices that perform the same procedures frequently
By contrast, hospitals are generalist facilities with massive overhead costs - meaning visits are more expensive and quality does not correlate
Members have a massive financial responsibility, too many choices, and little-to-no information. Flume Community™ makes care decisions simple by selecting for high value, and rewarding patients with a waived deductible

Providers today face an unreasonably high cost of doing business, billing via complex claims and a need to collect more from patients - some have even resorted to suing their patients
In some hospitals, the billing and collection staff now outnumber nurses
A fair reimbursement arrangement means providers can focus on care, rather than administration

High-cost, opaque insurance PPO networks have driven up the cost of care - forcing employers to decrease benefits (increased premiums & deductibles)
By selecting the providers who price fairly and have proven to improve outcomes, employers can finally afford to share savings back with members
So proactive healthcare becomes affordable again
