OPOC’s Approach
Problem: This nonprofit school, dedicated to serving children and families with special needs, found itself at a crossroads in 2015. Its healthcare plan was becoming unsustainable—consuming an increasing share of the budget and putting pressure on programming and staff support. The goal was clear: reduce healthcare spend without reducing benefits. Ideally, improve them—to attract and retain the passionate educators and support staff essential to its mission.
Solution: OPOC.us audited plan design, premium outflows, and employee usage—revealing misaligned incentives and cost leakage. We introduced the One-Point-of-CARETM model to realign coverage with real usage. Employees gained one-on-one support through the CARE Center and Personal CARE AdvocatesTM, helping them resolve billing issues, lower costs, and better navigate their benefits. The result: 10 years of savings and stronger support for the people behind the mission.

Why It Worked
This school didn’t just need a vendor—they needed a true partner. OPOC’s model delivered financial relief and enhanced benefits, enabling the organization to redirect savings into its core mission while taking better care of the people who make that mission possible.
