We understand that employers want to provide health care benefits
that meet their employees' needs and offer the best value. In 2009,
metroplex employers were expected to spend an average of $9,865 per employee
annually for health care benefits, nearly an 6% increase over 2008
costs. Employees' out-of-pocket share will climb to $1,984 on average.*

Bringing together leaders and decision makers from a variety of
