TRANSPORTATION WORKFORCE HEALTH
Healthcare.
Built for the road.
A transportation-first workforce healthcare strategy for drivers, contractors, families and fleets.
Healthier drivers. Stronger families. Stronger fleets.
02 — THE GAP
The road creates a healthcare gap.
The transportation system itself — routes, delivery windows, parking, irregular schedules — creates friction that makes conventional benefits hard to actually use on the road.
03 — THE EVIDENCE
The health profile is different.
Obesity among surveyed long-haul drivers
Reported two or more major health-risk factors
Long-haul drivers without a healthcare plan
Delayed or did not receive needed healthcare
Sources: CDC / NIOSH occupational health research on long-haul truck drivers, compared against U.S. adult working population figures. Figures are drawn from published survey research and are intended to illustrate the distinct health profile of the long-haul workforce.
04 — THE HUMAN REALITY
900 miles
from home.
Care still has to work.
The problem is not only whether a benefit exists. It is whether a driver can realistically use it — around routes, parking, delivery windows, irregular schedules, and time away from home.
05 — CARE THAT TRAVELS
Care that travels.

OptimalMD is not insurance. It provides everyday healthcare access and does not replace major medical, hospitalization, or catastrophic coverage.
07 — BUILT FOR TRANSPORTATION
Built for the realities of transportation.
What does your workforce look like?
New Hires
Offer everyday healthcare access from day one so new drivers can reach care during onboarding and early routes — before traditional coverage decisions are settled.
Workforce Access
Workforce access (reaching people with everyday care) is distinct from benefits strategy (how access is layered with required coverage). OptimalMD does not independently replace major medical or satisfy employer insurance mandates on its own.
NO COMPANY REQUIRED
Get healthcare on your own.
You don't need to wait for your employer. Drivers, contractors, and transportation workers can enroll directly — everyday virtual care, $0 meds, $0 labs, and therapy that travels with you.
Built for
- Company drivers without employer coverage
- Owner-operators & 1099 contractors
- Drivers between jobs or in onboarding
- Dispatchers, warehouse & field staff
- Families who need everyday care access
OptimalMD is not insurance and does not replace major medical, hospitalization, or catastrophic coverage, nor independently satisfy employer insurance mandates. Pricing illustrative; confirm at enrollment.
08 — THE BUSINESS CASE
See what it costs for your own workforce.
PART A — EMPLOYER INVESTMENT
Fleet scale. Clear economics.
125 individual · 125 family
250 total members
Example: 250 members at a 50/50 mix = $31,000/mo and $372,000/yr. Calculations are exact based on $99/mo individual and $149/mo family pricing.
PART B — RETENTION ECONOMICS
Retention has a price.
Historical driver replacement benchmark: $8,234 per replacement.
10 fewer replacements × $8,234 benchmark.
Illustrative avoided replacement cost — not expected program savings. This does not imply OptimalMD will produce these retention outcomes. Benchmark is historical.
PART C — LOGISTICS EMPLOYER CASE
A logistics employer case in the market.
The reported structure included OptimalMD Prime Family plus an additional health-sharing / major-medical component. Results are not guaranteed and do not imply the full impact was Prime-only savings.
ENTERPRISE CLARITY
One system. Three different jobs.
OptimalMD
Everyday healthcare access
Virtual care, $0 meds, $0 labs, therapy, and coordination for the everyday 80% of care.
TPA / Plan Administration
Compliance + administration
Plan administration and compliance layer that governs eligibility and program structure.
Major Medical
High-cost / catastrophic protection
Hospitalization and catastrophic protection for the serious, unpredictable events.
These layers are complementary — not substitutes. OptimalMD handles everyday access; plan administration handles compliance; major medical handles catastrophic protection.
09 — DIRECTX + OPTIMALMD
Built around transportation.
DirectX understands transportation. OptimalMD is the healthcare platform inside it.
