  5. Q&A: Question 3 How does the On-Site Clinic prevent catastrophic claims which drive health insurance increases? • Removes of the cost barrier and provides convenient care • Patients are more likely to use the clinic which will result in early intervention and prevention of high risk health conditions such as: • Heart Attack • Stroke

  6. Q&A: Question 4 What is the cost break-even point for the operations of the On-Site Clinic? • Averaging 7 office visits per day will bring the clinic to break-even • NJPA Coop will be paying for all lab costs and pharmacy costs for the Albert Lea Area School District if the district selects HealthPartners as the provider for our On-Site Clinic. This is a value of approximately $40,000 annually. • If we reach a daily average of 12 office visits, we would achieve an estimated savings of $180,000 annually.

  7. Q&A: Question 5 What is the estimated participation level? • Year 1 – Anticipate to break-even • Year 2 – Generate a savings

  8. Q&A: Question 6 What about a mobile lab or multiple locations? • According to consultants, this would be very expensive • Scheduling would be very difficult • Access to all the necessary equipment would be a challenge for the provider • Tele-Health options are being explored

  9. Q&A: Question 7 What is the statutory bid requirement? • Statute does not require the district to bid this out due to the fact that it is a professional service • If the district were to go with HealthPartners, NJPA would contribute an estimated $40,000 annually to support the HealthPartners On-Site Clinic concept.

  10. Q&A: Question 8 What is the timeline for implementation? • Implementation typically takes 5-7 months from the point of build out of the clinic space and hiring the health care provider (Physician’s Assistant)
