U.S. health care spending is the highest in the world, but we do not always receive the best quality in return. In “Driving Innovation in the Health Care Marketplace,” Business Roundtable outlines a policy strategy to support innovation and close the gap between what we pay for health care and the value we receive.
BRT companies provide health coverage to more than 40 million Americans. We help American workers and their families remain healthy, receive quality treatment when necessary and achieve better health outcomes. The private-sector innovations in the insurance marketplace that enable us to provide these services to our employees and their families serve as models for public programs — but additional reforms are necessary.
This report highlights the innovations we have made and the public policy changes we believe would drive value by promoting health and improving outcomes.
