DALLAS, July 29, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Employer Direct Healthcare is excited to announce its recent partnership with AFGlobal Corporation. On January 1, 2020, AFGlobal began offering Employer Direct Healthcare's SurgeryPlus™ benefit, a supplemental benefit providing surgical concierge services with a focus on quality care, lower costs, and a better member experience.

The members participating in AFGlobal's health plan will have access to the SurgeryPlus™ benefit's full-service healthcare concierge for over 1,400 non-emergent procedures. When they choose to utilize the SurgeryPlus™ benefit, members will be paired with their own dedicated Care Advocate. Their Care Advocate will assist them with everything from their selection of a surgeon, to scheduling appointments, transferring medical records, and even arranging travel, removing the stress and confusion often associated with planning for medical care.

As an added benefit, when participants elect to use a participating surgeon through the SurgeryPlus™ benefit, AFGlobal will waive their out-of-pocket financial responsibility.

John Zutter, CEO of Employer Direct Healthcare, commented, "Our partnership with AFGlobal was formed earlier this year to help their employees, along with their families, access top-quality healthcare at fair prices. The current COVID-19 crisis has made this directive more critical than ever, and we are excited to continue to build on our strong momentum, driving savings and superior outcomes for our members."
