A UnitedHealthcare company, Surest® is built to provide what most people expect — preventive care, urgent/emergency care, behavioral health care and more — but with a far simpler plan design. Surest aims to tackle 3 challenges with innovative solutions:

1 in 4 people went without medical care

due to uncertainty over coverage

$5,969 in average health care costs

paid by employees each year

$1T of U.S. health care spending is wasteful

and costs continue to rise, forcing some employers to choose between trimming the benefit or shifting costs to employees
