If It’s Broke, Fix It: Health Care Providers and Health Reform


5:00 PM - 6:30 AM EDT

The American health care system is broken and requires fundamental change. Change that ensures that all Americans have affordable health coverage, rather than living with the financial and emotional insecurity of being uninsured. Change that controls escalating health care costs that burden American families and American businesses. Change that ensures that patients maintain their choice of doctors, hospitals and other health care providers. And change that makes prevention, wellness and health promotion a centerpiece of the American health care system. Doctors, nurses and other health professionals struggle daily with our broken health care system. They know, better than anyone else, how the problems with coverage, quality, autonomy and inefficiency leave patients with higher costs and lower-quality care. Please join the Center for American Progress for an exploration of the challenges the current health care system poses for health professionals, patients and policymakers, and a discussion of how doctors, nurses and other health care professionals can use their unique insight and real-life experiences to steer the nation towards a solution.
