the Complimentary Leadership Breakfast
Healthcare:
Reforming the System
Wednesday, October 21, 2009 • 7:30 AM–9:30 AM
National Press Club • 13th Floor Ballroom
529 14th Street, NW • Washington, DC
The only thing harder than enacting health care reform legislation may be implementing what detailed and fundamental changes may result. The federal government will undoubtedly face enormous management challenges whether reform is broad or incremental.
Government officials could be tasked with creating benefits packages; establishing an entity through which people may purchase insurance, penalizing individuals who don’t buy insurance and employers who don’t offer it, changing how Medicare pays doctors, hospitals and other medical providers, and deciding who should get money to encourage adoption of electronic health records systems.
Join Timothy Clark, Editor-in-Chief of Government Executive, Marilyn Serafini, National Journal Staff Correspondent, and a panel of experts as they discuss key elements of the healthcare reform agenda.
Panelists include:
DAVID BLUMENTHAL, M.D., National Coordinator for Health Information Technology, United States Department of Health and Human Services
THOMAS A. SCULLY, Senior Counsel, Alston + Bird LLP
Moderated by:
TIMOTHY B. CLARK, Editor-in-Chief, Government Executive
MARILYN SERAFINI, Staff Correspondent, National Journal
