Rethinking Healthcare: Why Big River Benefits Was Born

Rethinking Healthcare:

Why Big River Benefits Was Born

At Big River Benefits, we believe something better is possible.

For years, families, business owners and employees alike have struggled under a broken system — rising premiums, long wait times, red tape, and a total lack of personalization. Employers are paying more and more for healthcare plans that their teams barely use or even understand.

We decided enough was enough.

Built by Someone Who’s Been Inside the System

Big River Benefits was founded by Andrew Jenkins, a veteran who spent over 15 years serving as a soldier, contractor, and civilian. After witnessing firsthand how deeply broken the healthcare system had become — both as a patient and as a professional — Andrew made the bold decision to step away from the traditional model.

Andrew launched Big River Benefits to give employers and families something better:

• More access.
  

• More trust.
  

• Less cost.
  

• Less confusion.

This isn’t about slapping a new label on the old system. It’s about starting fresh with a people-first model that actually works.

What Makes Big River Benefits Different?

✔️ Predictable Pricing
One simple monthly rate per employee. No co-pays, no surprise bills, no chasing reimbursements.

✔️ Same-Day Access
Your team shouldn’t wait weeks to be seen. With our DPC partners, most patients are seen the same or next day.

✔️ Real Relationships with Real Doctors
This isn’t a rotating list of providers. It’s care built on long-term relationships — where your employees are seen, heard, and actually cared for.

✔️ Concierge-Level Support
We don’t hand you a binder and disappear. We walk alongside your team, educating, onboarding, and supporting your employees every step of the way.

The Proof Is in the Results

Our model — built around Direct Primary Care — is already making a measurable impact:

• 94% patient satisfaction
  

• 54% fewer ER visits
  

• 30% average annual savings for employers

These aren't just numbers — they represent real care delivered to real people, without all the waste, delay, and frustration of traditional group health.
