    Our guest speaker for this meeting will be Ryan Abell with LHD Benefit Advisors.

    Ryan's presentation topic will be “Healthcare and Insurance: An Insider's Point of View.  A discussion on Indiana’s Rising Cost of Healthcare – What can we do? How does it impact recruiting and retaining employees?” 

    The Wall Street Journal, Harvard Review and the RAND Study are all showing Indiana at more than 300% more expensive than Medicare when it comes to cost of procedures and care here in this state.  The conversation continues as it pertains to attracting and retaining employees because benefits and compensation often act like a balloon.  If you squeeze one end, the other gets bigger…  Meaning, the higher the cost for benefits, the less is left over for compensation.  And the opposite is true as well.  This presentation will discuss why benefits are becoming increasingly more expensive and strategies to reduce costs over time since our Indiana market is notoriously expensive.  And, on top of that, company culture has jumped to the front of the line when discussing benefits.
