SESSION 3: HEALTH CARE SOLUTIONSThe third session will tackle health care, one of the hottest issues facing government, businesses and individuals. The current health care system in our country presents an enormous challenge to economic development and economic growth. How do we attack the health care barriers to economic development? How do we turn the current situation into an opportunity to achieve gains in cost, efficiency and quality? To address this critical, complex issue, a panel of purchasers and providers who are in "solution mode" will lead a forward-looking discussion to remind us not only that we have a problem, but to offer innovative ideas for both large and small purchasers of health care. | |
