Many employers are starting to look for creative ways to ease the burden of healthcare not only for themselves, but also for their employees. Onsite clinics are an excellent option to help alleviate the growing cost of healthcare, but you will need to go into the process with a plan. Here are a few tips on how to budget for your [onsite clinic](https://www.neopathhealth.com/onsite-clinics/). ## **Current Cost Analysis** > [Get right to it.

If you take a deep dive into the costs that you are incurring through your current health offerings, you may find some discouraging information. ![Budgeting for an onsite clinic](https://blog.neopathhealth.com/hs-fs/hubfs/rawpixel-603015-unsplash.jpg?width=600&name=rawpixel-603015-unsplash.jpg) There is an increasing trend of people moving away from regular, routine visits to the doctor. The healthcare system is time-consuming, expensive, and frustrating for many, and often requires employees to take time off of work in order to visit a doctor's office. So, people tend to prefer to ignore little ailments and wait until things get bad to seek any kind of treatment. This leads to more and more people going into the higher expense facilities like emergency rooms and urgent care clinics instead of utilizing a primary care physician or clinic. > [What's the difference between traditional healthcare and an onsite clinic?

However, it is a significant up-front investment of time, resources, and finances. If you aren't sure you'll be able to establish the budget for onsite clinic, you can also look into near-site or shared options. With these options, you wouldn't have to cover the cost of building and staffing your own clinic, but could enter into a partnership to build, or join into an established clinic with another company. You will have less control over future potential savings with these options, but the up-front costs will also be lower. ![Budgeting for an onsite clinic](https://blog.neopathhealth.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Budgeting%20for%20an%20onsite%20clinic%202.jpg?width=600&name=Budgeting%20for%20an%20onsite%20clinic%202.jpg) ## **Start Small** Maybe you aren't sure that your employees would even utilize an on-site clinic. You can start out small, perhaps bringing in an on-site chiropractor once a week or investing in a fitness program with a nearby facility. A culture of wellness is something that can be built up and encouraged within your company. If your employees care about their health and wellness, they will be more likely to want to do things to stay well like going to regular check-ups and taking preventative health measures. If you're able to build an overall focus on wellness within your company, it may be easier to justify the cost of building an on-site clinic because you know that your employees would care enough about their health to use it.
