Maven helps leading global employers and health plans offer more inclusive pathways to parenthood and gives members 24/7/365 access to support during their most vulnerable moments. Maven’s award-winning digital programs are trusted to reduce costs and drive better health outcomes for both parents and children. Founded in 2014 by CEO Kate Ryder, Maven offers care for fertility, pregnancy and parenting and has been recognized as Fast Company’s #1 Most Innovative Health Company. Maven has supported more than 10 million women and families to date, and has raised over $200 million in funding from leading investors.

We are excited to announce Maven Clinic as our Partner of the Week, where we highlight one of our unique PlanSource Marketplace Partners and the value they bring to the benefits industry. We recently sat down to discuss their unique employee benefits and how they support women’s health and fertility within the benefits industry.

What makes your company unique in the benefits space – what key benefits do you provide to employees?

Maven is the largest virtual clinic for women’s and family health, offering continuous, holistic care for fertility and family building through maternity, parenting, pediatrics, and menopause. Maven’s award-winning digital programs are trusted by leading employers and health plans to reduce costs and drive better health outcomes, as well as enhance DE&I in benefits programs.

Maven’s 24/7 platform provides clinical, emotional, and financial support all in one place, offering employees compassionate care at some of the most vulnerable and joyful life stages. Employees receive personalized care through access to their broad range of virtual specialists, dedicated Care Advocates, expert-approved content and classes, and expense management through Maven Wallet.

What industry problems are we solving with our partnership for HR teams and/or their employees?
Women’s and family health has been historically underserved. Maven is changing the trajectory and filling widening gaps in care. Today, employees are taking on complex journeys when it comes to building and raising their families, often faced with misinformation, limited access to quality care, and prohibitive costs. The right employee benefits can change their reality, so that they can take on their health, family, and career goals all at the same time.

HR teams and employers are facing rising healthcare costs, employee burnout, and the effects of fragmented benefits systems. Additionally, one-size-fits-all healthcare benefits fail to meet the needs of diverse, global employee populations and their families. Maven’s end-to-end solution is the only global platform inclusive of all paths to parenthood and life stages. As the only end-to-end solution with both breadth and depth, Maven brings the entire health and family journey into one single platform. Maven acts as a single family benefits hub, making it seamless for HR teams and employees.

Through their innovative approach, Maven helps 25% of fertility members achieve pregnancy without fertility treatment; reduces NICU admissions up to 28%; and 96% of members are more loyal to their employer.

What is one thing your company is doing to innovate your product/offering to change the industry?
Maven is both the category creator and global leader in the space. They were named Fast Company’s Most Innovative Company of 2023 and received the prestigious 2022 CNBC disruptor award. They are the thought leader who shows up for families worldwide when they don’t know where to go for trustworthy support.

The Maven platform is backed by extensive clinical research led by their Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Neel Shah. Their clinical initiatives work to improve outcomes for both their members and their partners. For example, Maven recently developed a short-form, clinically-validated digital social determinants of health (SDoH) screening tool that reduces barriers to identifying and addressing social needs. This screener allows Maven to further personalize the member’s care and experience, especially for those in historically marginalized communities. This research and more of Maven’s clinical initiatives can be found here.
