Value Based Purchasing for Employers.

Wednesday, January 30, 2013 1:00-2:00 PM ET

Join us for a complimentary 60-minute webinar showcasing how high-performing employer organizations are pioneering the use of data analytics to drive greater value and return on investment from healthcare spending. .

The webinar will address the following questions and more...

• Are your vendors' cost-containment and clinical programs well aligned with the unique needs of your workforce?

• Do you have the tools in place to independently evaluate the effectiveness of your health and wellness programs over time?

• Are your carrier's networks delivering value-based care and fair pricing?

• Will your organization's stop loss coverage adequately support next year's high-cost claimants?

In this webinar, our experts will demonstrate the effective use of analytic and risk management techniques to help you implement cost-effective healthcare purchasing strategies. Identify the root causes of cost and utilization trends, assess gaps in clinical care, forecast future costs, and evaluate the performance of programs and vendors.
