Critical Business Issue:
Healthcare -- Costly, Complex, Broken
Are you concerned about the cost of healthcare? If you are,
you are not alone. Join General Motors, Wal-Mart, Fortune 500
and small business owners alike, as they grapple with the cost
of healthcare benefits.
In every survey of CEOs, CFOs and business leaders published
recently, executives say that one of their top concerns is the
cost of healthcare benefits and its impact on their firm's competitiveness
and on their ability to attract and retain top talent. In one
survey by a major business journal, 78% of CEOs suggested that
run-away healthcare costs were their #1 concern. They are concerned
with good reason.
- Healthcare costs continue to rise faster than the rate
of inflation or revenue growth. This continues despite all
managed care approaches to keep costs down.
- Healthcare benefits represent as much as 5%, 10%, even
15% of total cost of doing business.
- Employee dissatisfaction with decreasing benefits and declining
real income due to benefit cost shifting is high.
- Physicians and providers are at odds with hospitals and
insurers because of accounting-driven decision making and
declining reimbursements. A "we/they" attitude pits docs and
other care givers against administrators.
- 43 Million Uninsured Americans.
- US Healthcare is the most costly in the world and the outcomes
are poor by the world's metrics.
