Chicago-based Blackwell Captive Solutions (Blackwell) has partnered with Synergy Healthcare (Synergy) for clinical population health management. Blackwell oversees medical stop loss insurance captives for the benefit of self-funded health plans. Based in North Carolina, Synergy integrates clinical services directly into human resources through combining population health, healthcare navigation, and care intervention into one simplified employer-based solution. By providing onsite, personalised support from dedicated nurse advocates [through Synergy’s platform], health outcomes are improved, risk is mitigated, and costs are controlled, says Blackwell.
