In his highly acclaimed book, Redefining Health Care, Dr. Michael Porter states that employers "should demand improving health care value, and improving employee well being." To pursue this goal with our clients, C.M. Smith is creating a team under the leadership of Dr. George Mayzell, MD, MBA to focus on strategies to improve health care value - in its many forms. Our clients booked an average health care cost increase of 4% in 2007, and we are optimistic that expansion of our focus on health care value will produce even better long term results.
