Doug started adding out-of-the-box solutions such as: Complementary Medicine, PRP, Stem Cell therapy, Prolozone therapy, PGx, and Coba Health, into ICON’s traditional medical plan. These options have reduced plan expenses, while improving the quality of life for employees.

Remember the mission to reach the moon? In 1962, President JFK set forth a vision. He initiated a movement that outlived him! Even in his death, the mission was accomplished seven years after his famous speech. Now we’re on a five-year mission, and it's not about us. This is a mission for you – the individual, the stakeholder, the employer healthcare and benefits professional. Join the mission to reduce costs, reimagine culture, and reinvent care.
