The MHA partnered with Crain’s Content Studio to facilitate a healthcare affordability discussion, which was highlighted in its Detroit and Grand Rapids publications.
Healthcare and business leaders examined the complex factors driving healthcare costs and its impact on both patients and employers. Participants emphasized that meaningful change will require coordination across the healthcare system, including providers, insurers, businesses and policymakers.
Hospital leaders highlighted existing efforts to improve efficiency, reduce administrative burden and expand new care models that help keep patients healthier and out of the hospital.
The discussion reinforced Michigan hospitals’ commitment to addressing affordability while maintaining access to high-quality care.
