Linking Business & Healthcare to Make Change Happen

Learn to proactively deter waste and inefficiencies whether financial or clinical care.

Connect

Collaborating with stakeholders allows you to identify unmet needs while optimizing care pathways.

Initiate

We guide employers on how to build better plans that offer equitable access to advanced medical therapies.

Actions

EPC establishes a communicative partnership between employers and healthcare

  • Helps employers and providers take a more active role in managing their shared healthcare investments
  • The only national group that is a collaborative and integrated group of employers and providers who work with all organizations in all areas:
  • Employers as a group, Business Groups or Coalitions
  • Clinical societies or associations
  • Manufacturers and Advocacy groups
  • Healthcare administration and management groups
  • Health insurance and legal groups
  • Provides employers and providers with access to highly qualified individuals with experience and expertise in required healthcare-related efficiency, quality, and effective medical care practice.
  • Creates resources that both payers and providers need to be able to understand and critically assess the applicability of new treatment modalities to their own situation in order to make informed medical policy decisions.
  • Convenes sessions or sections of various group meetings such as the WellSpent Forum, Linking Business and Healthcare:
  • The goal of live and virtual collaborations like WellSpent is to inform, influence, and engage key stakeholders on the importance of innovating healthcare for employers, plans, or manufacturers.
