1st Medical Wellness Conference October 27-28th, 2009 in Los Angeles, California

Los Angeles, CA, June 12, 2009 --(PR.com)-- The 1st dedicated Medical Wellness conference will feature redesigning the Benefit plans and changing employee behavior while promoting health and wellness.

With over 400 attendees and over 50 expert speakers, this high level medical wellness conference will bring together the best healthcare leaders in the country for 2 days of intense advanced educational sessions and networking dedicated to corporate wellness, value based benefit design, and reducing healthcare costs through health and wellness promotion. The cost of healthcare for a single employee on average is $9,660 according to Towers Perrin and is increasing by at least 5% each year.

More and more employers are forced to cut costs and in some cases reduce staff or reduce benefits because of the downturn in the economy. To make matters worse many Americans are living unhealthy lifestyles and are not aware of wellness or prevention, which will only result in worse health conditions and higher healthcare costs in the future. Employers have reached an impasse where they need to do something drastic in order to continue offering affordable and meaningful healthcare benefits to their employees. The Medical Wellness conference brings together employers, health plans, consultants and health insurance agents for advanced educational sessions by the leaders in corporate wellness and value based benefit design to teach you how to redesign benefit plan designs to focus on engaging the consumer and implementing the right tools, disease management, knowledge and health and wellness programs to really change employees actions and decisions with the end result being more affordable healthcare premiums and healthier employees.

Learn from the leading employers, benefit managers and health plans that have implemented medical wellness programs with success and amazing results. The educational panel sessions will focus on employers and health plans that have significantly reduced healthcare costs and created change in their employees and they way the employee lives their lives and purchases and utilizes healthcare benefits.

Find out what practical solutions you can implement that really work, and what concepts simply have failed.

This is the one conference per year you can’t afford to miss.
