Partnership for Market-Driven Health Care

The Business Health Care Group (BHCG) is the business community's voice and collective action group for influencing the direction of health care costs and quality in our region.

As a membership organization of large and small employers, BHCG's goal is to support a market-driven health care delivery system in Southeastern Wisconsin. A system where educated consumers would make choices using reliable information about the efficiency and effectiveness of the health care they select. Providers would compete to meet patient needs by delivering care with the best outcomes at the best cost.

The current market lacks several factors to make a market-driven approach work, including consumer education and guidance, information transparency, consolidated purchasing power and accountability by all parties.

We believe that health care consumers, providers and employers all have individual accountability within the health care system. Explore the web site to find out how we work with each of these stakeholders to bring about real change in southeast Wisconsin.
