Building on the forum held at the White House on March 5, Burlington, Vermont will host the second in a series of Regional White House Forums on Health Reform on Tuesday, March 17 at 1:00pm EDT. In keeping with the Obama administration’s commitment to a transparent, accountable government, the forum will bring together a diverse group of people with a stake in reforming our health care system to voice their concerns and ideas. 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 curb skyrocketing health care costs that are draining our federal budget, devastating families and small businesses and undermining our long-term economic prosperity. |
