Amazon, Berkshire Hathaway and JPMorgan Chase & Co. announced that they are partnering on ways to address healthcare for their U.S. employees, with the aim of improving employee satisfaction and reducing costs. <\/strong><\/p>\n

The three companies, which bring their scale and complementary expertise to this long-term effort, will pursue this objective through an independent company<\/strong> that is free from profit-making incentives and constraints.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"eHealth\"<\/p>\n

An independent health care company for their employees in the US<\/h2>\n

By bringing together three of the world\u2019s leading organizations into this new and innovative construct, the group hopes to draw on its combined capabilities and resources to take a fresh approach to these critical matters.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe ballooning costs of healthcare act as a hungry tapeworm on the American economy. Our group does not come to this problem with answers. But we also do not accept it as inevitable. Rather, we share the belief that putting our collective resources behind the country\u2019s best talent can, in time, check the rise in health costs while concurrently enhancing patient satisfaction and outcomes,\u201d<\/em> said Berkshire Hathaway Chairman and CEO, Warren Buffett<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe healthcare system is complex, and we enter into this challenge open-eyed about the degree of difficulty,\u201d<\/em> said Jeff Bezos,<\/strong> Amazon founder and CEO. \u201cHard as it might be, reducing healthcare\u2019s burden on the economy while improving outcomes for employees and their families would be worth the effort. Success is going to require talented experts, a beginner\u2019s mind, and a long-term orientation.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cOur people want transparency, knowledge and control when it comes to managing their healthcare,\u201d<\/em> said Jamie Dimon<\/strong>, Chairman and CEO of JPMorgan Chase. \u201cThe three of our companies have extraordinary resources, and our goal is to create solutions that benefit our U.S. employees, their families and, potentially, all Americans,\u201d<\/em> he added.<\/p>\n
