Financial Management
Employers are facing unprecedented costs to provide insurance coverage for their employees. This comes at a time when inflationary pressures have already stretched the bottom line and broken budgets, and the recruitment and retention of talent is a more critical business issue than ever before. New solutions are needed to address these chronic challenges, and direct relationships between employers and providers can be the solution. In this session, you'll learn about how direct-to-employer relationships can offer an additional revenue stream for health systems and create a mutually beneficial business partnership. Exploring innovative alternatives to traditional health system revenue streams will propel growth and reform in the constantly evolving landscape of healthcare payment and delivery. Mr. Stefanizzi has worked hands-on with local, regional and national employers, including some of the largest organizations in the country, such as Bank of America, the United States Department of State, the New York Police Department, Whole Foods, Jet Blue, and a variety of labor unions, municipalities and other businesses. He can bring a unique perspective on the rationale for local, regional and national employers to work directly with health systems to provide access to high-quality care at a more sustainable price point, and how these efforts can transform our healthcare system in the United States.
