Mission & Objectives
The Cost & Delivery Institute is a select group of members who convene for insightful and productive dialogue on strategic topics related to health care cost trends and delivery system transformation, focusing on finding effective solutions to the challenges faced by large employers. Meetings create a forum for employers and other industry leaders to address specific issues that are important to controlling health benefits costs, improving care quality and safety and engaging employees.
Institute members learn from one another, share actionable insights and success stories and hear from experts about emerging trends and proven solutions. Participation in the Institute informs employers’ and industry partners’ decision-making and offers members opportunities to establish themselves as leaders in health care benefits.
