Case Study: Drs. Distin & Doyle achieve long-term health care cost savings with PeopleKeep (ZaneHealth)

Illinois Optometric Office Uses ZaneHealth to Avoid High Group Health Care Costs

Drs. Distin & Doyle, a two‑office optometric practice in Monmouth and Aledo, Illinois, faced steadily rising group health care costs and needed a benefits solution that was both competitive for employees and affordable for the business. To address this, they partnered with PeopleKeep to offer a defined‑contribution health plan (ZaneHealth) that would control employer costs while keeping coverage options for staff.

PeopleKeep implemented the defined‑contribution plan so employees receive tax‑free funds to pay private insurance premiums and the practice lists those contributions as a tax‑deductible business expense. The solution simplified administration via an online claims process, produced immediate cost savings for both Drs. Distin & Doyle and their employees, and established ZaneHealth as the practice’s long‑term, fixed‑cost health benefits solution.
