2. Back to Basics—Managing Health Plan Costs "Inside
the Box"!
This session provides a thought-provoking, interactive—and perhaps controversial—discussion about what we’ve learned from past attempts

completely different. Have we spent so much time looking “outside the
box” that the answer might be “inside the box”? Learn from a corporate
benefits professional with more than three decades of experience what
we’ve done in the past to control costs and why we are still looking for
the solution. Explore the challenges facing employers in the future and
discover how health and welfare plans will affect recruiting and retention
of a very different workforce.
