The Benefits Playbook
Hear from the best minds in employee health. Learn how employers are getting more from their healthcare investments and making it easier for their employees to understand and access healthcare.
Strategies for Self-Funded Health Plans
Employee healthcare represents the second-largest investment for most U.S. businesses, behind payroll. It’s a highly complex system with excessive costs, frustrating member experiences, and administrative burdens.
So, how can employers take control? On The Benefits Playbook: Strategies for Self-Funded Health Plans, discover how innovative companies are changing the status quo to improve the health of their people and their bottom lines.
Join host Kirk McConnell, Commercial Leader at Collective Health, and our guests, as we help you create a successful strategy for better employee healthcare.
