This Earth Day, we’re proud to highlight some of the ways sustainability shows up in our everyday operations. 🌎

From composting and recycling to refillable water stations and biodegradable materials, we’re focused on reducing our environmental footprint in practical ways.

Our office also includes motion-sensor lighting, an electric vehicle charging station, and a system that retains stormwater in an underground cistern that captures the water and prevents runoff.

Small, intentional choices add up.
It’s not about doing everything at once—it’s about making better choices where we can and continuing to live well.

Most employers don’t realize how much their healthcare experience is shaped by one decision: Their provider network.

A “good” provider is not just about who’s in-network.

It’s about:
• What care costs
• Which doctors employees can see
• How stressful the experience becomes

The right network impacts access, cost, and the quality-of-care employees receive every day.

With our self-funded plan, employers can evaluate networks based on what matters:
✔️ Cost transparency
✔️ Provider quality and access
✔️ Fit for their population.
✔️ Integration with their overall cost strategy

Because behind every network decision is a real person:
An employee trying to afford a prescription
A parent scheduling a specialist visit
Someone navigating a diagnosis they didn’t expect

If you’re exploring self-funding, this could be one of the most important decisions you’ll make.

Learn what you need to know in our latest blog: “How to Choose a Provider Network for a Self-Funded Plan” https://roundstoneinsurance.com/blog/how-to-choose-a-self-funded-provider-network/
Or connect with a Regional Practice Leader to learn more about Roundstone’s Preferred Bundle as a proven starting point.

Proud to see the impact of the Roundstone Pavilion on Re:Source Cleveland, an organization we're honored to support.

This expansion means more than added space. It creates year-round jobs and expands access to fresh, healthy food, helping more people live well.

It’s a powerful example of what’s possible when you invest in people, health, and local infrastructure.

Today is Diabetes Alert Day, a national “wake-up call” to understand your risk and take action.

Observed every year on the fourth Tuesday in March, this day was created by the American Diabetes Association to raise awareness about the seriousness of diabetes and the importance of early detection.

Why it matters:
Nearly 1 in 2 Americans has diabetes or prediabetes, and many don’t even know it.
Left unmanaged, diabetes can lead to serious complications including heart, kidney, and eye disease.

As a health partner, we believe awareness is only the first step. Action is what changes outcomes.

Today is a reminder to:
• Know your risk factors
• Recognize early symptoms
• Take advantage of preventive screenings
• Make small, sustainable lifestyle changes

Because better health doesn’t start with treatment, it starts with understanding.

Encourage your employees, clients, and communities to take a minute today to check their risk. It could change everything.

Share to help spread awareness!

🍀 A little St. Patrick’s Day story behind the name Roundstone…

We were founded in 2003 with a mission to create a better way for small and midsize businesses to manage their health benefits. But our name? That started a little differently.

It comes from Roundstone, Ireland, where founder Michael Schroeder first had the idea that would shape the company.

What followed was more than just a business. It was a new model.

The idea evolved from a stop-loss reinsurer into the first medical group captive of its kind, giving employers with 25 to 1,000 employees access to the same advantages once reserved for large organizations:
• more control
• greater transparency
• the opportunity to share in savings

By bringing businesses together in a shared-risk community, Michael helped redefine what was possible in self-funded healthcare.

Today, that idea has grown into a company supporting more than 1,000 employers nationwide, all grounded in one belief: there’s a better way to do health benefits.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day 🍀

Thinking about self-funding, but worried about large claims?
That hesitation usually comes down to one thing:
Risk.

Stop-loss insurance is what makes self-funding attainable for small- and mid-sized business. It protects employers from large claims while still allowing them to maintain control over their health plan.

In our blog “Understanding Stop-Loss Insurance,” we simplify:
• What stop-loss insurance actually covers
• What the key terms mean in plain English
• How stop-loss protects financial stability

Self-funding is not about taking on unlimited risk.

It is about taking structured risks with protection in place.

Confused by stop-loss terminology? This article breaks it down.

AI in healthcare is everywhere.

But very little of the conversation focuses on what’s actually working inside hospitals today.

As we kickoff Season 2 of Healthcare Forward, Michael Schroeder sat down with Brandon Cornuke, Senior Director of Innovation at University Hospitals, for part 1 of our University Hospitals AI series to talk about how AI is being deployed right now to improve care, operations, and cost management.

This conversation goes beyond the buzzwords.

We dig into real applications already producing measurable impact:

• AI-powered Connected Care reducing patient falls and supporting nursing teams
• AI-driven patient follow-up improving post-discharge engagement

We rolled up our sleeves yesterday 💪

We hosted our very first blood drive with the American Red Cross, and our team showed up in a big way. Together we collected enough blood to impact 105 lives!

What started as a Wellness Committee idea turned into a day full of generosity, high-fives, snacks… and a lot of bandaged arms.

A great reminder that living our values isn’t just something we talk about — it’s something we do.
