Greenheck Group has reaffirmed its commitment to improving healthcare accessibility and affordability for employees and their families through an expanded partnership with Premise Health. According to Chief Human Resources Officer Carrie Strobel, the collaboration strengthens the company's employee wellness initiatives by providing easier access to onsite medical care, virtual health services, and a wider range of healthcare solutions for its North Carolina workforce.

The newly established Greenheck Group Wellness Center, situated on the company's Commerce Center Drive campus, is operated by a dedicated Premise Health medical team. The facility offers an extensive selection of healthcare services, including primary care, pharmacy support, physical therapy, care coordination, and patient navigation. Employees and their eligible family members can also take advantage of Premise Health's virtual wellness platform, enabling convenient access to medical care from virtually anywhere. By combining in-person and digital healthcare options, the program aims to deliver better health outcomes while creating a more seamless and convenient care experience.

Premise Health Chief Operating Officer Beth Ratliff highlighted the continued collaboration as an important step in Greenheck Group's long-term investment in employee well-being. She noted that the new Shelby wellness center expands access to integrated healthcare by bringing together primary care, preventive services, and multiple care delivery channels. The shared objective of both organizations is to provide more connected, accessible, and effective healthcare for every employee and their family.

Earlier in the year, Greenheck Group and Premise Health also enhanced the services available at the company's existing Wellness Center in Schofield, Wisconsin. Based at Greenheck Group's flagship campus, the facility serves approximately 2,500 employees and their family members, offering many of the same comprehensive healthcare services now available at the newly opened Shelby location.

Mending has unveiled Mending Access, a new solution designed to help third-party administrators (TPAs) and self-funded employers incorporate Direct Primary Care (DPC) directly into their health plans. Since its debut in January 2026, the platform has already extended DPC availability to over 100,000 individuals covered under employer-sponsored plans.

Interest in Direct Primary Care has been rising steadily as organizations search for ways to enhance access to primary care services while managing rising healthcare expenses. However, DPC has typically been offered as a standalone or loosely linked benefit, which has limited its uptake and made it harder for employers and administrators to track usage and outcomes effectively.

Mending Access addresses these challenges by embedding DPC services within employer health plans and TPA systems. The platform supports eligibility tracking, seamless data sharing, usage-based payments, and detailed reporting at the claims level. This gives employers and TPAs the tools and visibility needed to monitor engagement and assess the value of their primary care investments.

Jay Kempton, CEO of The Kempton Group Administrators and Co-founder of the Free Market Medical Association, noted that while DPC has long promised to transform employer-sponsored healthcare, operational complexities have slowed its broader adoption. He emphasized that employers are drawn to the accessibility and patient-physician relationships DPC offers, but also require transparency, automation, and robust reporting—capabilities that Mending Access brings together to help move DPC into wider use.

The launch also signals significant growth for Mending and the DPC ecosystem. Previously operating in just two states with DPC-focused plans on the ACA Marketplace, the company now has a presence in 12 states and aims to expand to more than 25 by the end of 2026.

Mending Access also makes it easier for DPC providers to participate in employer-sponsored healthcare without adding administrative complexity or disrupting their care model.

Co-founder Jeff Yuan highlighted that the company has spent years developing technology in collaboration with the DPC community, building trust and credibility. He explained that this groundwork has enabled Mending to connect employers seeking better primary care options with providers already delivering high-quality DPC services, expanding patient access while maintaining the model’s core strengths.

For employers and TPAs, the platform offers a streamlined way to integrate accessible, relationship-focused primary care into their plans, backed by strong reporting and oversight capabilities. For DPC providers, it creates new opportunities for patient growth without compromising their operational simplicity.

DPC practices across the U.S. that meet eligibility criteria are now invited to join the Mending Access program at no cost. Early participants will have the opportunity to serve employer groups as the company continues to broaden its nationwide reach throughout 2026.
