Company Planning for Healthcare and Employees’ Participation in the Planning and in the “Plan”

Strangely, a “health plan” does not really plan for “health.” It is a way for a company to pay for an employee’s benefit related to the dollars they spend on sickness and recovery from accidents. There is no overall goal in mind or improvement in the health status contemplated by the company or by the employees. This is a “hoped for” rather than a “planned for” outcome.
