It's Time to Reframe Health & Health Benefits
It is not an understatement to say that our world has changed overnight. The global coronavirus pandemic has uprooted our personal lives; our economy; our work. There is no aspect that has been untouched.
Now is a good time to prepare for what life will be like when we get to the other side of the pandemic. According to Zeev Neuwirth, physician and author, we need to reframe, redesign, and reorganize to thrive in this new world. We must bring fresh perspectives, new ideas, and bold solutions to both the old problems that aren’t going away and the new challenges that await us.
Attendees heard first-hand from national and regional experts about how to pivot their thinking, strategy, and approaches to achieve higher performance in primary care, health & wellbeing, and organizational culture.
Attendees walked away with a better understanding and appreciation for how to REFRAME health benefits and well-being programming, thereby delivering positive business results.
