America’s Employers Welcome Congressional Hearing on Health Care Innovations


Washington – The National Coalition on Benefits applauds House Education and Workforce Committee Chairman John Kline (R-MN) and Subcommittee on Health, Employment, Labor and Pensions Chairman Phil Roe (R-TN) for showcasing the highly successful innovations that private-sector employers have developed to improve the quality and affordability of health care in the United States. Examples include:

  • Workplace wellness programs
  • Private exchanges
  • On-site medical clinics
  • Hospital quality and safety standards
  • Innovative delivery system models

Approximately 181 million Americans have health, retirement and other valuable benefits provided by their employer under a uniform national framework established by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). America’s employers believe that as Congress considers changes to the U.S. health care delivery system, care should be taken to preserve ERISA – the framework for the health care coverage on which millions of Americans depend.

Protect health benefits for more than 181 million Americans.
