We recognize the challenges associated with managing rising costs in today’s economic environment. As prices continue to rise across everyday essentials — from groceries to fuel — health care, like many necessary services, is also impacted.
At Univera Healthcare, we are right here for our members. We remain deeply committed to supporting them and to ensuring that rising health care costs don’t stand in the way of access to high quality care.

Breaking Down What’s Driving Costs
We know the upward trend of health care costs is expected to continue, impacting organizations and individuals alike. Rising costs associated with musculoskeletal disorders, heart and circulatory care, cancer treatment and prescription drugs are challenging patients, doctors, businesses, health plans, and the entire health care system.
As a local, nonprofit health plan, we direct almost all of our resources toward supporting our members’ health. For every premium dollar, 92 cents goes directly to medical services such as prescription drugs, hospitals stays, doctor visits, and more.
For a closer look at what’s driving health care spending, review our "Top Costs 2025" (PDF) Flyer.
How We’re Helping Control Costs While Supporting Member Health
When we support our members’ health, we’re also helping to control rising health care costs. Programs like care coordination, chronic condition support and virtual care help improve access and ensure our members get the right care at the right time.
As a local, mission-based health plan serving Western New York, we work closely with providers and the broader health care system to keep our members healthier — helping to prevent health issues that can also lead to higher costs.
