Control

By joining together, our member health plans gain power to negotiate better coverage and better prices from service providers. The Pacific Health Coalition negotiates service contracts for member health plans, allowing them to lower health care costs for their own plan participants.

Membership is easy, and most active member health plans recover the cost of their membership in the first year. In fact, many have reduced annual health care costs by more than $1,200 per employee. Don’t wait to benefit.
