The premise
Healthcare is a business decision. Employers deserve to see the whole picture.
After nearly two decades in employee benefits, Corry Hull wrote this guide for the leaders asked to make high-stakes healthcare decisions with too little visibility into what they are buying.
Employers do not have to fix American healthcare. They simply have to become better buyers of the healthcare they are already paying for.
