DESCRIPTION

With the Massachusetts Health Care Reform Act upon us, there has been an overwhelming amount of information, resources and articles available regarding the changes including countless opinions about how this will affect employers. On June 11th, The Commonwealth Institute will bring together a group of established experts in the health care field to answer the questions left on the minds of business leaders, including:

  • What opportunities will arise for business leaders from the changes in health care law?
  • What sort of economic impact do you anticipate from these changes?
  • How do you foresee these changes affecting the cost of owning or running a business in Massachusetts?

Featuring:

Charles D. Baker, President and CEO of Harvard Pilgrim Health Care, Inc.
