Satori's Health & Shared Wealth Program™

Satori's innovative, patent-pending Business & Care model is founded on the belief that all participants, individuals, employers, plan sponsors, and payors share in the financial benefit of global healthcare.  Typically, a procedure with Satori is 44-84% less than US hospital cost and physician fees including medical and travel costs.  Through the Satori Health & Shared Wealth Program,™ payors can share savings with employers, plan sponsors and for the first time, patients.

One method for our model utilizes a Health Reimbursement Account (HRA), an employer-funded benefit plan that reimburses employees for qualified medical expenses.  Employers will fund a portion of the savings to their employees and waive all out-of-pocket expenses when they select a Satori Global Network™ provider for their procedure.
