23rd Annual “Best of the Best”

Wednesday, November 7, 2018

Disney’s Contemporary Resort, Lake Buena Vista, Florida

“Best of the Best” is a favorite event for proactive employers made possible by the generous support of The Walt Disney Company for the past 22 years. “Best of the Best” showcases effective programs initiated by both self-funded and fully insured employers.

 

The Florida Alliance invited leading edge employers who have been innovative in their benefit design and contracting to present their successful programs. This year’s topics addressed plan designs to accommodate biosimilars, encouraging employees to reach and maintain a healthy weight, and cost and quality outcomes from early adoption of bundled payments.
