Health Care Value

Higher quality health care gets people back to their normal activities faster, and they stay healthier. High-quality care delivers higher value for your health care dollar.  Hospitals and health systems in Wisconsin provide accessible, affordable health care in their communities.

The simple fact that Wisconsin’s population is living longer creates consistent and growing demand for health care services. Growing demand coupled with innovative health care providers and the imperative to deliver care more efficiently and effectively is driving health care innovation and investment in Wisconsin.  Health care delivery is already Wisconsin’s #2 employer, with hospitals alone directly employing some 108,000+ people. 

Hospitals and health systems are among the largest employers in Wisconsin as we build healthier communities, create new jobs, and support local businesses.  Across the state, there is a hospital located in nine out of ten counties, meaning patients can get the care they need, when they need it.
