Politics Magazine Healthcare Summit
October 7, 2009 Washington, DC
At a healthcare forum hosted by Politics magazine, current and former members of Congress said they believed President Obama would sign some sort of a healthcare reform package, most likely later this year. "There would be too much political damage done if something doesn't pass, so Congress will find a way," said Congressman Michael Burgess, MD (R-TX).
Former Governor Howard Dean, MD; Senator John Barrasso, MD (R-WY); and other healthcare industry opinion leaders joined Burgess and more than 150 attendees from congressional offices, advocacy organizations, private industry, and health insurers at the 2nd annual Politics magazine Health Policy Summit.
