The forum will help advanced employers and health insurers precisely position their Health Risk Management strategy to face the future.

Another profound feature of the forum is that the forum reveals the current status of Chinese enterprises and signs the hot topics, which is industry-wide concerned. China's industrialization, urbanization and aging are in a key period of rapid development on an unprecedented scale. The grim reality is that Chinese enterprises and their employees are generally not good at managing their own physical and mental health issues, which creates more risk for the enterprises while they are working to survive and prosper in an increasingly competitive market. Facing this endless crisis and overwhelming risks, it is high time to develop and implement stronger Integrated health risk management programs, both physical and mental.

On one hand, the representatives will share the topics of facing fierce competition and rapidly changing markets, what enterprises can do to deal with the high pressure conditions; how to establish an effective health risk management program in order to improve both HR and the employees' satisfaction. And on the other hand, it will discuss how to implement the innovative practice model, 'Health Risk Management + Health Insurance', to maximize the synergies between health risk management and health insurance, and also will help employees understanding, and then better manage, their health condition and the potential health risks. By helping to prevent and transfer the financial risk of the staff physical health, we will reap the benefits of also greatly reducing the claim risk of the insurance companies. Integrated health risk management on the workforce will not only increase productivity but also resolve a fundamental contradiction between supply and demand on the medical market as well. And ultimately enable the health insurance industry to flourish and to actively promote the development of health insurance in the multi-level medical security system in China.
