The growth of the market is attributed to the factors such as increasing awareness regarding employees’ health & wellness, and rising healthcare programs in the country are expected to propel the market growth.

A healthcare plan is an employee welfare benefit plan established by an employee or employer of the organization that provides medical care for participants through reimbursement or insurance.Health insurance is one of the major benefits employees need when considering a firm’s compensation offerings. Organizations providing strong wellness and healthcare programs are an important retention and recruitment tool for employers, especially considering the high level of employee attrition in 2021 and 2022. In 2020, 60% of non-elderly Americans, or 163 million employees, were covered by corporate insurance. According to the Kaiser Family Foundation, in 2021, the average annual amounts contributed by employees were USD 1,299 for single coverage and USD 5,969 for family coverage.

As per the report of the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics 2022, life insurance was available to 57% of private industry employees, and wellness programs were available to 43% of private industry employees. Corporate health plans offer an affordable way for employees to maintain essential health coverage. Employer-paid health insurance provides a sense of security and increases employee satisfaction. Providing high-quality wellness and healthcare benefits to employees can have both immediate and long-term benefits. Employees who receive quality healthcare plans report a higher appreciation, which leads to higher morale and job satisfaction.

The COVID-19 pandemic positively impacted the market owing to the increasing spending on health and wellness. Due to the infection, many people working in corporate firms were infected and hospitalized. Many employers also started providing COVID-19 insurance to their workforce. The pandemic also prompted a shift towards wellness and preventive care. People started following healthy lifestyles, yoga, meditation, and fitness exercises to manage stress and health. This boosted the overall market growth.

Service Insights

The healthcare segment dominated the market in 2022 due to a large number of employees covered under healthcare insurance. Under the corporate insurance plan, an employee has many options to select health insurance. According to Kaiser Family Foundation, employees paid 17% of self-only insurance plans and 27% of family insurance plans in 2021. The organization provides group health insurance to employees in the event of a medical emergency. Preventive healthcare measures are also included in modern insurance plans, and employees who practice healthy habits are rewarded. This helps organizations to avoid sickness and improve overall employee efficiency.

The wellness segment is projected to witness the fastest growth in the coming years as wellness programs improve health and assist individuals in overcoming specific health-related issues. Employee health and wellness have a direct impact on an organization’s efficiency and productivity. Many corporates recognize this link and are willing to invest in such programs. As a result, the benefits of implementing comprehensive employee wellness programs exceed the program costs.

Organization Size Insights

The large-scale organization segment dominated the market with a share of 48.55% in 2022. The segment is estimated to dominate the market throughout the forecast period. Many large organizations have programs to help employees identify health issues and manage chronic conditions, such as biometric screenings, health risk assessments, and health promotion initiatives. Large organizations provide subsidized wellness services such as gym memberships, spa treatments, mental health sessions, and others. High adoption of these services among people working in large corporate firms is propelling segment growth. It is estimated that 64% of covered employees, including 21% of covered employees in small organizations and 82% of covered employees in large organizations, are enrolled in self-funded plans.

The medium-scale organization segment is projected to witness the fastest growth in the coming years. Rising spending on health and wellness programs such as yoga and meditation classes is rendering high growth of the segment. The increasing number of medium-sized organizations and the focus on employee health due to increased absenteeism and attrition are likely to boost the growth of the segment.
