We are excited to announce that Elizabeth Mitchell, President and CEO of Purchaser Business Group on Health (PBGH), will provide the keynote address “The Purchaser’s Dilemma: Why Employers Should Demand Value (and Why They Don’t)” at HMA’s 2024 Spring Workshop on value-based care, March 5-6 at the Fairmont in Chicago.
In her role at PBGH, a nonprofit coalition representing nearly 40 private employers and public entities across the U.S. that collectively spend $350 billion annually purchasing healthcare services for more than 21 million Americans and their families, Mitchell represents a coalition of large purchasers – private employers and public entities – across the U.S. mobilizing to create functional health care markets that support high-quality affordable care that produces measurable outcomes. She will talk about the successes and challenges of creating greater alignment on value-based approaches to the $350 billion annual private purchaser spend on healthcare services.
Her remarks – and the input of others engaged in improving our healthcare system – will be unvarnished and focused on solutions to advance value-based care. Be part of this exciting discussion among top industry experts, health plan executives, state and federal leaders, and policy experts in working sessions to generate new solutions and actions to get us to the next level of quality and value.
