Case Study: Taft-Hartley Fund achieves nearly $1M in savings with Conifer Health Solutions

Taft-Hartley Fund Achieved Nearly $1M in Savings in a Single Year

Taft-Hartley Fund, a Mid-Atlantic fund serving more than 3,200 heavy equipment operators and their dependents, was seeing rising year-over-year claims, especially among high-cost claimants, along with low member engagement and weak interaction with its medical management company. To address these issues, the Fund partnered with Conifer Health Solutions and used its Personal Health Management approach.

Conifer Health Solutions delivered rich data analytics, quarterly reporting, predictive risk scoring through ConiferCore® technology, and personalized care management to identify at-risk members, close care gaps, and support members with new or costly conditions. The program also improved outreach through co-branded communications and nurse-authored education, producing $924,231 in savings in year 2, a 3:1 ROI, and 91% overall member engagement; disease-specific outcomes included 67% of diabetes members meeting goals and 50% of members with depression reporting better symptom control.
