UW Foster EMBA/Premera Symposium
on Creating a Sustainable Healthcare System

The Congressional Budget Office reports that the healthcare cost crisis now threatens the U.S. economy. Whether through market forces or government intervention, wrenching changes are ahead for healthcare. These changes will be promising for some local companies and painful to many; none will go untouched. An in-depth understanding of the issues is imperative for every business leader.

On October 26, 2012 we had a timely conversation with experts in their field about these issues.
