Future of Health Summit 2021

The Dollars and Sense of Investing in Mental Health Resources (Invite only)

Employers are uniquely positioned to transform the intersection of workplace and public health crises, including mental health and addiction. Nearly 50 percent of Americans receive health benefits through their employers. Topics of high interest include access to good-quality care, both physical and mental; health economics; and investing in health-tech innovation. Also urgent are transformation of workplace culture, stigma, awareness, and prevention. The impact of fraud on quality of care is a perennial concern, while organizational performance, barrier removal, and talent retention are timely issues. Addressing these priorities may seem costly, but prevention, risk management, and upstream intervention will help build more resilient communities and cost less than the failure to promote a lasting, scalable response in the workplace. This invite-only session previews the joint approach of the Milken Institute and the Leidos CEO Pledge Collaborative Action Group in advance of the October kick-off. A leaders' panel will precede a group discussion.
