I've worked with employee benefits plans for over 30 years. At first, I was a broker, working with the usual health insurance companies to help employers get the "least worst" renewal. Then about a decade ago, I became aware of how broken the healthcare system is and how what you call "premium," the insurance companies call "revenue."
What company is ever going to set out to lower its revenue?
Your company's healthcare spending is one of the top 3 items in your P&L and probably the one with the most waste. You don't accept that in any other aspect of your business, so why do you when it comes to this one?
What the healthcare industry doesn't want you to know - the mistake that companies all across the country make - is this: you don't have to accept it.
Join us and a group of your peers for coffee and bagels at an executive roundtable where we will discuss proven strategies that we've used right here in Erie to prevent companies from wasting 15-20% of their healthcare budget.
These strategies include things like:
* How to control the frequency and severity of claims
* How to control the cost of name-brand and specialty medications, especially those advertised on television
* How to ensure that your employees and their families go to the highest-quality doctors and facilities
