Health Care
The Health Care Center provides opportunities for companies across the health sector and employer sponsors of health care coverage to collaborate on public policy issues.
Together, they work to advance policies that promote innovation, limit government micromanagement, and support a robust private sector health ecosystem. This includes a strong emphasis on supporting the adoption of cutting-edge technology and a value-based approach to payments.
The center also leads initiatives to educate policymakers and the public on the value of innovations in the health care sector and the economic contributions of major industry subsectors, creating a more balanced framework for policy discussions.
But price controls on medicines could put this progress at risk.
