GOVERNOR PATRICK TO CO-MODERATE REGIONAL WHITE HOUSE FORUM ON HEALTH CARE REFORM
Second in series of regional White House forums held in Burlington, Vermont
The forum will take place at the Davis Center at the University of Vermont at 1:00 p.m. The forum will bring together a diverse group of people to voice their concerns and ideas on reforming our health care system.
Forum participants will include doctors, patients, providers, insurers, policy experts and health care advocates of all kinds - both Democrats and Republicans - who will discuss the urgent need to provide high-quality, affordable health care for all Americans and to curb skyrocketing health care costs that are draining our federal and state budgets, devastating families and small businesses, and undermining our long-term economic prosperity.
