Hixme - Containing Costs and Enabling Health Insurance Choice

Erik Wissig serves as Hixme Insurance Solutions, Inc.’s chief financial officer and oversees a technology-driven platform in the group benefits sphere. Emphasizing innovative solutions that place employees in the driver’s seat when it comes to health benefits, Erik Wissig’s company enables employers to optimize their activities within the individual health insurance market.

Interviewed by Forbes, Mr. Wissig described his company as fulfilling an essential role within an Affordable Care Act-influenced health care landscape in which it can be extremely challenging to predict evolving regulatory mandates and areas of price increase. Within a commission and reimbursement environment, a key focus is finding a sustainable revenue model, given that health care providers have limited flexibility in adjusting service and product pricing.

Hixme has identified these challenges and found ways of enabling companies to reevaluate their systems in ways that protect worker coverage while containing the elevated costs associated with health employer-sponsored plans. Through the use of financial and insurance technology tools, optimized health care levels are actively delivered, tailored to the needs of large organizations.
