What's inside

  • Why men's health is now a defined benefits category — the clinical scope published frameworks converge on, and how it maps to claims.
  • Where the cost accumulates — treatment cost by stage at diagnosis, drawn from US commercial claims.
  • The savings model — every line computed as cases × cost per case, with the full derivation table.
  • Opportunity by activation rate — modeled and conservative cases at 5%, 10.8%, 15% and 20%.
  • What the analysis is not — stated limits, and the contractual guarantee to hold us to.
