The Price of Power: Confronting the Hospital Affordability Crisis
September 19, 2024 | 8 a.m.-3 p.m. (ET)
| |
Shawn Gremminger, National Alliance president and CEO, will be a panelist at the 32BJ Health Fund and Labor Industry Cooperation Fund third annual conference.
The Price of Power: Confronting the Hospital Affordability Crisis, is September 19, 2024, in New York City. The conference brings together employers, labor leaders, healthcare providers, policymakers, and patient advocates to explore the anticompetitive power dynamics that keep hospital prices unjustifiably high (and rising). Action-based conversations will strengthen this community, leading to attainable steps for policymakers and purchasers to lead as one in driving down prices.
