Healthcare now rivals wages as a top workforce concern; for employers and labor organizations, that shift demands a real response. Advanced primary care built around prevention, early detection, and ongoing cost control can meaningfully change outcomes for employees and the bottom line alike. What does it look like when that kind of partnership actually works?

EMPLOYER PERSPECTIVES

What real employers say about the Marathon difference

Healthcare as a workforce priority


Carl: "Healthcare has become such a huge concern in the working world for the average person that that has probably become a bigger issue to people than wages."

Kendra: "Marathon's vision for healthcare and how they treat their population is very important to how we want our population to be treated."

Monica: "When we partnered with Marathon, it was really a cultural fit for us."

Kim: "We chose Marathon because of their focus, not just on acute care, but on prevention and wellness and keeping people healthy in the first place."


A visible difference in employee health


Monica: "You see the work in action, you see the associates getting healthier, you see the chronic conditions improving."

Kendra: "Our focus is always on keeping our employees as happy as possible and the clinic certainly adds to that. It provides a level of care that they can't find probably even anywhere else, whether it's another employer or in the retail healthcare market."


Care that supports retention


Kim: "I've literally been told that people don't leave because they don't want to lose the Marathon access. They have such a great relationship with the doctor that they don't want to leave the company. So I know for a fact that we do retain people because of our clinic."


Early detection and cost impact


Carl: "Our experience with Marathon has been phenomenal. We have seen where participants, whether they go to their Marathon facility to get their wellness done, go for a regular checkup, or maybe they're having some type of health condition that they need to get looked at, have caught potential claims early. And in turn, we've seen that in reduced claim costs to the fund."

Judy: "Oh, it helps a tremendous amount. If we have one averted catastrophic claim of something that was caught early or avoided altogether, that pays for the program fees in and of itself."

 

A benefit worth offering


Kim: "It makes me feel great that we offer this benefit to people that I genuinely care about. They're not just coworkers. They're people I've worked with for nearly 20 years."

Monica: "It's definitely something that makes us a first in class employer."

Kendra: "It is something that can set you apart as an employer."

Carl: "It's what we should be doing as a labor organization to help our members take care of the things that affect them and their family every day."
