Company That Solved Healthcare: How Serigraph Dramatically Reduced Skyrocketing Costs While Providin

Even with new health-care policies, it's clear that health-care costs will continue to rise dramatically. While individuals may get better coverage, businesses will have the same problem they've had for the last four decades. Health care, one of corporate America's largest expenses, is growing at double-digit rates, and nothing done in Washington will change that. But one company set out to tame the beast of rising health-care costs. Serigraph, Inc., a Wisconsin-based manufacturer of decorative parts, and its chairman, John Torinus, did what Washington can't or won't do: reduce cost increases to less than two percent while improving the quality of health care for its employees. The implications for corporate America are staggering--the opportunity for genuine reform in an expense category that has been spiraling out of control. The Company That Solved Health Care describes the fascinating details of Serigraph's program and shows how any company can achieve similar results. This book is a must-listen for any manager responsible for his or her company's health-care expenses, any academic or thinker involved in the health-care debate, and anyone who wants to better understand why health-care costs have been rising and what can be done to achieve price stability while improving patient care.
