PBGH is a nonprofit coalition that supports the country’s largest employers and health care purchasers in improving care quality while moderating cost growth. It serves as a collective voice for member companies, whose combined health care spending surpasses $350 billion annually and covers about 21 million Americans and their dependents. Based in Oakland, California, the organization works to advance affordability, transparency, and accountability in health care policy and practice.

Its activities center on programs and data initiatives that help employer fiduciaries make informed, cost-effective care choices. Notable efforts include the Care Excellence Program in California, launched in 2024 to connect employees and payers with top-performing primary and specialty care providers, and initiatives aimed at increasing data transparency around costs and quality. The group has also pursued expansion of coordinated care networks, such as an advanced primary care-driven network in Puget Sound.
