Healthcare Committee
Healthcare is a critical issue in South Florida, and the Healthcare Committee helps empower Chamber members to provide the most appropriate health and wellness programs for their employees, support community efforts to build healthcare programs that are necessary to improve the local workforce; and to improve South Florida's position as a world class place to live, work and play. Its objectives include assisting Chamber members to learn more about healthcare options and increase their satisfaction with, and confidence in the plans they offer; increasing Chamber members' understanding of the importance of healthcare in attracting, retaining and developing a healthy, strong and committed workforce, helping to promote Miami's ranking as a healthy community; maintaining the Healthcare Commitee's signature Chamber programs; and addressing population health issues specific to the Miami-Dade area that is likely impacting the business community and that, by the Chamber becoming involved, can make a positive impact.
Participation in the Healthcare Committee is open to all Greater Miami Chamber members in good standing who have interests or concerns related to healthcare. Members include healthcare and related organizations, community health organizations, healthcare professionals, and key stakeholders within the overall topic of healthcare.
