Vision
 
The Public Employees’ Benefit Board believes the current healthcare system is in crisis. The depth, breadth and complexity of this problem require long-term solutions. PEBB has developed a vision statement to articulate its desired future. This vision guides the Board's planning and decision-making processes.
 
PEBB Vision for 2007
 
PEBB envisions an alliance with members, their employers, the Board and the healthcare community to create a new state of health for its members statewide. Key components of the PEBB program will include:
  • An innovative delivery system in communities statewide that provides evidence-based medicine to maximize health and utilize dollars wisely.
  • A focus on improving quality and outcomes not just providing healthcare.
  • The promotion of consumer education, healthy behaviors and informed choices.
  • Appropriate market and consumer incentives that encourage the right care at the right time.
  • System-wide transparency through explicit, available and understandable reports about costs, outcomes and other useful data.
  • Benefits that are affordable to the state and employees.
