Halifax (NS) – Health benefits industry leaders and some of North America’s top health experts meet today in Halifax to discuss the impact of emerging trends that may transform the benefits industry and impact the delivery of health services in Canada.
The discussions are part of Benefits3, an annual event hosted by Medavie Blue Cross now in it’s 12th year that will run until mid-day on April 5.
