The Colorado Business Group on Health (CBGH) is a purchaser-led, nonprofit coalition that brings together employers, affiliates, consumers, healthcare providers, and insurers to pursue value-based improvements in Colorado’s healthcare market. Since 1996, it has focused on programs, pilot projects, and studies that aim to lower costs while improving quality for all Coloradans and their communities, presenting a market-driven approach to purchasing and value in care. Based in Lakewood, Colorado, CBGH operates within the hospitals and healthcare industry as a member-based organization that does not engage in lobbying. The group emphasizes collaboration with its members to influence how healthcare is delivered and paid for, aligning purchasing power with quality and cost considerations. Recent activity highlights include recognition of its leadership, such as the executive director receiving a national award in 2022 for growing CBGH’s role in value-based purchasing. The organization has also collaborated on publications and partnerships to expand its efforts, including joint reports and alliances with broader networks to identify centers of excellence and direct members toward high-value care. Through these efforts, CBGH seeks to curb rising healthcare costs while promoting better health outcomes for employees and their communities.
