Premera Blue Cross, one of the leading health plans in the Pacific Northwest, providing coverage and services to more than 2 million people.
 
Jeff joined Premera in 1996, served in roles leading the company's Employer and Individual market segments, and became President in January 2014.  His leadership in insurance also includes positions as Co-President of Safeco Insurance and Chief Marketing Officer for Torrent Technologies. Roe started his career in the Washington, D.C., office of U.S. Senator Slade Gorton, after studying Economics and Political Science at the University of Washington.
 
Jeff serves on the Boards of the National Institute for Health Care Management, Blue Cross Blue Shield Association, Washington Healthcare Forum, University of Washington Foster School of Business, United Way of Snohomish County and the Visiting Committee of the University of Washington Economics Department.

Jeff will discuss key trends in health care nationally and locally, including:
  • Why healthcare is so expensive, what is behind those rising costs, and what should be done to help slow the increases.
  • The role of private insurance, why it is important to patients, and why moving to a single payer or public option system would be a mistake.
  • Innovation in healthcare and why the healthcare system needs to be as obsessed about the customer experience as Amazon, Nordstrom and Starbucks.

Hello,

My name is Shawna Thomas. I am co-chair of the Wellness Program at Pierce Transit. Is it too late to nominate Pierce Transit for the 2021 Workwell Award?
