Midwest Business Group on Health (MBGH) is a nonprofit organization that helps employers address the high cost of health care and the health and productivity of their covered populations. Based in Chicago, Illinois, MBGH offers educational programs, employer-directed research projects, purchasing opportunities, and community-based activities aimed at increasing the value of health care services and the health benefits they provide. Founded in 1980, MBGH serves more than 150 member companies representing over 4 million lives, with employer members spending more than $15 billion on health care annually.

Operating within the human resources services landscape, MBGH functions as a nonprofit coalition of employer purchasers of health care, focusing on practical approaches to manage health benefits and costs. The organization supports its members through education, research, and programmatic initiatives, and it hosts regular events such as its annual employer benefits conference, with the 46th edition scheduled for May 5-6, 2026, in Chicago. Over the years, MBGH has launched resources and toolkits—such as for diabetes management and for pain management and opioid use—designed to help employers implement improved health benefits and health outcomes.
