Coalitions In Action

Business Health Care Group (Wisconsin)
The Business Health Care Group (BHCG) offers a variety of employer solutions, from best-in-class strategic partners. Among these partners is Navitus Health Solutions, a transformative pharmacy benefit manager using a business model based on complete transparency and lowest net cost. AS a full pass-through pharmacy benefit solution, Navitus gives clients 100% of all rebates and any other revenue.

Purchaser Business Group on Health
To reduce healthcare costs and improve access to higher quality care, PBGH helps purchasers disrupt the complicated and opaque pharmaceutical supply chain and hold vendors accountable. The result is transformative benefit design and access to better and more transparent drug pricing for employers and their employees.

HealthCareTN (HCTN)
Pharmacy benefits continue to operate in a convoluted market, rife with disincentives, little to no transparency, and further complicated by consolidation. As specialty pharmacy continues to drive medical and pharmacy drug spend, employers are motivated to find alternatives to the status quo. HCTN introduces innovative strategies, practices and players with a goal of strengthening employer member understanding as they engage with the market.
