Employer Healthcare and Benefits Conference to Address Challenges and Opportunities for Employers Facing Rising Insurance Costs
Employers and Insurance Leaders Gather at Large to Discuss Opportunities and Challenges in Offering Health Insurance and Employee Benefits in Today's Economic Climate of Healthcare Reform During the Employer Healthcare Congress September 20-22nd, 2010 in Los Angeles.
West Palm Beach, FL, July 09, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Employer provided health insurance and employee benefits face tremendous challenges in the future as the cost of insurance increases and employers fight off the economic recession. These challenges emerge with voluntary benefits, worksite benefits, self funded healthcare, workers compensation benefits, and corporate wellness benefits. Healthcare Reform places even more of a burden on employer groups and is estimated to increase the cost of providing healthcare benefits to their employees and plan members. Stakeholders gather together to work towards solutions to managing the employee benefits they offer their employees.
Bob Trujillo, Program Director of Human Resources for the American Bar Administration said, "In order to meet the challenges of the current financial climate while balancing employee retention and recruitment, human resource professionals are faced with coordinating a new and innovative structure to their benefit plans. This conference is a great launching pad for sharing and developing new approaches toward our benefit packages."
Some of the speakers for the Employer Healthcare Congress are:
Brady Jensen, Group Manager, Global Benefits, Microsoft Corporation
