"As a member of the Tri-State Health Care Coalition our company has received significant financial benefits through group purchasing efforts in TPA services, prescription drugs, provider contracting and by providing a united employer voice to healthcare providers. Beyond the financial benefit the coalition serves as a resource for healthcare information, provides customer service by assisting with issues that arise with vendor/providers, leads projects that I would not have time to do in my day to day responsibilities, and helps keep us abreast of changes in the healthcare industry.
As a founding member of the coalition we have found it to be a wise investment for our business."

College for value based purchasing of Health Benefits.

College for Value Based Purchasing offers a comprehensive health benefits training program combining traditional management techniques with value-based purchasing and consumerism.

Beginning in 2010, the College offers an advanced, 1.5-day program in addition to our already established 3-day program. This new advanced course is scheduled in partnership with Coalitions who accept a host invitation from the College, and who pledge to actively support the College effort in their community.

Also in 2010, the College is convening a special 1.5-day program specifically for organizations that seek to work effectively with employers in order to help them improve the value of their health benefits.

For more information, please go to www.cbbp.org. Please visit the College Overview and Course Outline for more information on what the College has to offer in 2010, and read what College graduates have to say about the program by visiting our Testimonies webpage.
