POLICY BRIEF
Given the number of Americans they insure – 16 times the number of people who obtain health coverage through the ACA exchanges – and their collective purchasing power – $668 billion a year – US employers are pivotal players in today’s healthcare system. In fact, because of their significant role in the marketplace, employers are uniquely positioned to help control healthcare spending and promote positive health outcomes.
This new policy brief from Marsh & McLennan (MMC), the parent company of Oliver Wyman, Mercer, Marsh, and Guy Carpenter, demonstrates how important it is that policymakers consider the perspective of US employers in any health reform discussion. This brief urges legislators to consider the impact of health reform on US employers and the 177 million people who obtain health coverage through them and it provides four specific recommendations.
