Thank you for joining us for the Greater Philadelphia Busi-ness Coalition on Health’s Fifth Anniversary Cel-
ebration. Over the past five years we have sought to deliver value to the region’s employers by disseminating information on best practices for im-proving employee health and managing health benefits, providing a forum for collaborative learning among employers, and representing them in ef-forts to improve employee and community health and healthcare quality and safety. A few of our key accomplishments to date include:
I want to thank ALL of our members, both employers and affiliates, for supporting these and other activities, through their dues, and their par-ticipation in educational programs and work groups. Our growth in mem-bership – increasing from 8 employer members and 8 affiliate members when we announced our launch early in 2012, to 43 employers and 41 affil-iates today – is a reflection of recognition that working together, we can achieve measurable improvement in health and healthcare!
• Holding high-quality educational programs with national speakersthroughout the year, including our Annual Conference and AnnualWellness Summit
• Serving as the Leapfrog Group Regional Leader for promotingtransparency of hospital quality and safety information, with thenumber of hospitals participating in this voluntary reporting andimprovement effort increasing from 3 in 2012 to 32 in 2016
• Developing the nation’s first regional public report on quality ofinpatient cancer care services
• Developing value-based insurance design recommendations cover-ing smoking cessation, blood pressure management, lipid control,and diabetes drugs and supplies
• Convening a Diabetes Prevention Learning Collaborative/ObesityInterest Group providing employers with tools and strategies tohelp employees and dependents achieve healthy weight
