As the demand for medical services has increased, so has the price tag for healthcare. For most people, the rising cost of health insurance premiums lies at the center of concerns about rising healthcare costs. According to the National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL), the average annual premium for family healthcare coverage rose nearly 5% in 2018 to $19,6161.

Healthcare spending in the U.S. continues to rise and is expected to continue for years to come. While there are many factors contributing to the increase in costs, one company is providing relief in 2020 to its customers.

This year, leading human resources outsourcing firm and professional employer organization, INFINITI HR, rolled out the OpenAxess Cigna Medical Program and announced that rates will not increase in 2021 for participating employer groups and new customers.

The OpenAxess Cigna Medical Program is an innovative program designed to stabilize and reduce the cost of healthcare, in some cases by up to 30% to 40%.
