About the Author

 

 

 
Greg Scandlen is the founder and president of the Health Benefits Group (HBG), an independent consulting and publishing firm formed in 1995 to assist organizations in setting up Medical Savings Accounts and other patient-centered health care initiatives. HBG publishes the Patient Power Report, a monthly newsletter, and HBG's Washington Weekly, a faxed weekly memo.

Prior to forming HBG, he was Executive Director of the Council for Affordable Health Insurance, an association of small to mid-sized health insurance companies that are active in the small-group, individual and specialty lines insurance markets. Mr. Scandlen organized CAHI in early 1992, and it quickly became a preeminent voice for market-oriented health care reform, especially Medical Savings Accounts.

Mr. Scandlen was also the publisher of the Health Benefits Letter, a newsletter devoted to covering developments in health benefits reform on both the state and federal levels. He began this newsletter in January 1991 after having worked in the Blue Cross Blue Shield system for 12 years - most recently as Director of State Research in the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association's Washington office.
