What Our Members Say:

“Membership in the Florida Alliance for Healthcare Value is a no-brainer. It significantly saves money for both companies and their employees while simultaneously allowing us to provide better benefits to our employees. Their tireless management team never lets up in their pursuit of excellence.”

“It seems, these days, we are all so incredibly busy. Tasks are coming at us a mile a minute. More often the deadlines are yesterday. And if that is not enough, COVID-19 is thrown into the mix. I recently reached out to the Florida Alliance for Healthcare Value as I needed immediate advice with COVID-19 best practices. They, in turn, reached out to several members who came together and provided me exactly what I needed within the hour. This, in itself, justified my annual dues!”

Ashley Bacot, Director of Risk Management

Rosen Hotels & Resorts, Inc.
“Orange County Public Schools has been a member of the Florida Alliance for Healthcare Value since its inception in 1984. They provide us a wealth of resources. We are able to network with other employers facing the same challenges, tap into their collective knowledge base, identify new ideas, and more quickly build solutions to improve care and reduce costs.”
