11/21/09 - Health Care Reform – The Right Prescription? - Part II
Although a final legislative outcome is far from being decided, the direction of emerging health care legislation could have a significant effect on all Americans. After months of debate, the House of Representatives passed its version of comprehensive health care reform a month later, on November 7th. Attention now shifts to the Senate which could debate on its version of legislation soon. So while a lot has happened, there is a lot left to do. And given the historic significance of the health care reform proposals being debated, we are devoting two shows to health care reform with a distinguished panel of experts: Ken Jacobs, Chair of the U.C. Berkeley Labor Center; Patrick Johnston, President/CEO of California Association of Health Plans; Dr. John Capitman, Executive Director of the Central Valley Health Policy Institute; Dr. Mark Smith, President of the California Healthcare Foundation; Martin Gallegos, Senior VP/Chief Legislative Advocate for the California Hospital Association; and Diana Dooley, CEO/President of the California Children's Hospital Association.
