Since 2021, Morgan Health has focused on identifying systemic issues within the health care system, deploying capital to scale solution and implementing rapid-cycle pilots to refine products based on employee needs.
Recognizing the need for broader policy reforms, we collaborate with organizations across the health ecosystem to advocate for policies that improve outcomes for America's workforce and the communities served by JPMorganChase.
Our policy efforts are focused on three key areas:
- Accelerating Innovation in the Employer Market
Reform efforts have sought to increase value-based care payment models – marking a necessary step in shifting our health care system towards one that prioritizes quality over quantity. Unfortunately, employer-sponsored insurance (ESI) lags Medicare in this area.
Federal lawmakers should advance policies to support the sustainability of employer-sponsored insurance and employers looking to adopt value-based care and broader innovations.
- Modernizing the Health Data Chassis
The lack of clean, consistent and actionable data impacts employers’ ability to identify opportunities to improve benefit design. Equally important, while artificial intelligence (AI) offers the potential to bring efficiency and innovations to health care, its deployment is dependent on stronger and more interoperable data infrastructure.
Federal lawmakers should advance policies that modernize data infrastructure to improve health information sharing. This will support the broadest, most responsible deployment of AI.
- Bolstering the U.S. Health Care Workforce
The shortage of health care workers is a significant crisis across the U.S. Left unaddressed, health care workforce shortages can negatively impact population health and the broader economy.
Policymakers across every level of government should advance policies that bolster the U.S. health care workforce – ensuring the American workforce has access to the care they need.
Morgan Health will continue to comprehensive policy reforms to address these critical areas, ensuring that the American workforce has access to high-quality, equitable, and affordable health care.
