On the Frontline: Employers as Health Care Activists

icon mic

October 21, 2024

In aggregate, employers are the largest payers of health care in the U.S. and subsidize other health insurance markets, yet they are often sidelined from the crucial conversations around health care policy and delivery matters. With another spending surge on the horizon, it is more important than ever for employers to lean into redefining care access and delivery.


In our latest podcast episode, we talk about this and more with Paul Keckley, health care policy analyst and managing editor of The Keckley Report. We explore his article “Are employers ready to move from the back bench in U.S. health care?” and discuss the transformative actions that will drive meaningful change - a stronger voice and increased activism in delivery, the integration of social services and strategic engagement. Tune in now.


Business Group on Health consistently offers insights on the critical role employers play in shaping the health care industry. Learn more about our perspective here.
