Employers' Forum of Indiana

Employers Forum of Indiana - Electronic Prescribing Website

What we do

The Employers’ Forum of Indiana includes large public and private employers, physicians, hospitals, public officials, insurers, health plans and other interested parties. The objective of the Forum is to work as a community to address the challenges of the local healthcare marketplace.

Four key challenges have been identified:

Quality. How can our community significantly improve the quality and consistency of care provided to our employees/patients?
Efficiency. Can we develop a reimbursement system that promotes efficiency and consistently rewards health professionals and institutions for providing superior value?
Employee involvement. How can we create a system in which employees act as value-conscious and informed consumers?
Community participation. How to create a system that meets the diverse needs of employers, providers and health plans so that common action is possible?

You are invited to participate in this endeavor and to review the organization’s minutes, presentations and other related materials. We also welcome your comments and questions. These should be directed to Dave Kelleher (dave@hoi.com) or Dick Schnute (schnute@hoi.com).

We also recommend that you visit Quality Health First (www.qualityhealthfirst.org) and the eRx pages on this web site.
