Jill Turner-Mitchael, SVP overseeing health and wellness for Sam’s Club, was the keynote speaker at the Northwest Arkansas Council’s Health Care Summit in Rogers on Wednesday, April 6, Talk Business and Politics reported Thursday.
Turner-Mitchael addressed a number of ways Sam's Club is materially lowering healthcare costs - for example, Sam’s Club business members reported a 7% to 15% savings on their health care insurance costs when they utilize the retailer’s private health care exchange, she said. “We are also looking at adding dietitians to our clubs this year. We know it will drive loyalty to our company and will drive grocery sales."
