A recent study attributes $47 billion in AVOIDABLE medical spend each year to ER use. The primary reason? Defaulting to the ER is "easier" than navigating the complexities of one's healthcare network.

The study underscores the necessity for employers to re-think how they educate employees about about the accessibility of lower cost, and often higher quality, care options available.

Low health care system literacy is also costing $10 billion a year in unnecessary administrative costs.
