Arnie Milstein is the Medical Director at PBGH and the National Health Care Thought Leader at William M. Mercer.  His work focuses on improving managed care programs for large purchasers and government.

Dr. Milstein's 30 book chapters and published articles have centered on managed care program design.  A member of NCQA's national committee to develop HEDIS and the Performance Measures Coordinating Committee, Business Insurance magazine selected him as "one of the 20 people who has made a difference in employee benefits management in the past 20 years."  Last year's New England Journal of Medicine's series on employer sponsored health insurance described him as a "pioneer" in employer efforts to advance quality.

In October 2006 Dr. Milstein was elected to the Institute of Medicine.  He is a member of the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission.  Since January 2002, Dr. Milstein has also served on the Strategic Advisory Council of the National Quality Forum (NQF).
