Every benefits leader right now is managing the same pressure: costs climbing across medical, pharmacy, and dental, employees feeling it in their wallets, and leadership expecting results without added risk.

Finding a move that meaningfully reduces what employees pay out of pocket, rolls out without drama, and earns genuine goodwill from your workforce is rare.

For Patrycja Lenkin, Senior Director of Employee Benefits at Petco, one came from an unexpected place. In this candid conversation with XP Health CEO Antonio Moraes, she shares exactly how it happened, what it took to make the case internally, and what other HR leaders should know before they write off the same opportunity.

What You Will Discover:

• How Petco’s benefits team identified a high-impact opportunity in an area that wasn’t on their radar at first
• What their internal evaluation process looked like and what ultimately drove the decision
• How they approached full replacement versus a dual-option model and why it mattered
• What deployment looked like across a large, distributed workforce and what to realistically expect
• How employees responded early on and what the picture looks like six months in
• What Patrycja would tell any HR leader who’s looking for a lower-risk move that employees will notice

Why This Matters Now

Benefits leaders are being squeezed from every direction. Vendors are raising costs. Employees are frustrated. And the appetite for adding new point solutions, with all the risk and change management that comes with them, is understandably low.

But not every change carries the same risk profile. Some moves are harder to find than to execute. This session is about one of them, told by the HR leader who made the call and lived the rollout.

If your team is under pressure to deliver a tangible win for employees without taking on a major initiative, this conversation is worth an hour of your time.
