Changing the Playbook on Hospital Prices

Unsustainable hospital prices have reached a crisis point. The 32BJ Health Fund, 32BJ Labor Industry Cooperation Fund, and City & State NY will host a daylong conference exploring actionable tactics to change the playbook.

Policymakers, consumer advocates, employers, and other healthcare purchasers urgently need strategies to improve access to care at lower prices.

Keynote speaker Mark Cuban, co-founder of Cost Plus Drugs, will share his experience developing direct purchasing models that bypass traditional insurance, hospital, and pharmacy benefit manager markups to reduce healthcare costs.
