Krajnovich to partner with Apex’s benefits strategists, Kinetiq Health and EmpactHR teams
Apex Benefits is pleased to announce that Dan Krajnovich, a 30-year healthcare industry leader, has joined the organization as a strategic advisor. In this role, Krajnovich partners with Apex’s clinical and benefits strategists, and its Kinetiq Health and EmpactHR teams to help employers throughout Indiana improve the quality and lower the costs of employee health benefits.
“As Apex continues to lead in driving innovation and positive change in the healthcare marketplace, it is imperative that we draw from the experiences of key industry leaders and influencers,” said Apex President and CEO John Gause. “Dan joining our team creates a powerful force to improve outcomes for employers, their employees and families.”
As a strategic advisor, Krajnovich will impact advocacy efforts to drive positive transformation of health care in the Midwest while collaborating with Apex’s benefits, clinical and pharmacy experts to provide employers with the highest quality employee benefits solutions at the greatest value.
“I am passionate about improving the health status of Hoosiers, and I know my partnership with Apex can have an extraordinary impact on the cost and quality of health care throughout the state.” Krajnovich said.
Since its founding in 2003, Apex has served as an advocate for employers by fighting rising healthcare costs and increasing complexities of healthcare and benefits management. A recent Apex study demonstrates that, over the past three to five years, its clients have experienced healthcare benefit costs below regional trends – often realizing net cost savings instead of increases.
