Dear SCBCH Members
I am so proud to work with our insightful and forward thinking membership as we continue our work; bringing all healthcare stakeholders together to create a common agenda and utilize our collective impact to create positive change in the health and healthcare of South Carolinians. By building a state-wide consortium of like- minded entities, Employer and Provider, Public and Private, we have made great strides toward achieving our goals. But, much work remains.
Imagine a South Carolina where healthcare is affordable and available to all. Imagine employees who make their own health a top priority. Imagine employers with a healthy, productive workforce. Imagine providers as collaborative partners in creating new, more efficient care delivery models. Imagine a platform where this work can become a reality. You don’t have to imagine. We have built this platform, the South Carolina Business Coalition on Health, and we are creating an environment whereby the things that we have imagined are achieved.
I want to congratulate all of our members for your support and guidance, and invite others who share our passion to join us. Let me sum up with a quote from Margaret Mead:
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed people can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.
Warmest Regards,
Lisa Wear-Ellington
President/CEO
SC Business Coalition on Health
