Vision, policy, and politics
Please plan to join us virtually via webcast or in person tomorrow for a conversation over the vision, policy, and politics of health reform that relies on incentives, genuine competition, and consumer choice.

Virtually: http://www.galen. org/events/health-solutions- conference/
The stage is being set right now for a pivotal debate over ObamaCare in the 2014 elections – whether it will ultimately get “fixed” or replaced by credible free-market policies. Join us tomorrow (Thursday) as top political and policy leaders discuss “Fresh ideas and a new vision for health reform.”

- What are the problems we are trying to solve in the health sector?
- How would market-based solutions achieve meaningful reform?
Vision: Panel I will feature a discussion with leading members of Congress talking about their vision of a true market-based health reform. Six leaders will describe a health sector where incentives are properly aligned and consumers have more control over choices in a truly competitive market.

Rep. Michael Burgess, TX
Rep. Tom Price, GA
Rep. Phil Roe, TN
Rep. Steve Scalise, LA
*Moderated by Douglas Holtz-Eakin, American Action Forum
Policy: On Panel II, 10 policy experts from the major market-oriented think tanks will translate the vision into policy solutions for real insurance with real examples of portability and tax fairness, protections for those with pre-existing conditions, and a strong safety net.
