The U.S. Congress is poised to take a historic vote on health insurance reform in the coming days. What will the results of that vote—up or down—mean for health care delivery systems and the individual and families they serve? What happens next?
Maggie Mahar, a fellow at The Century Foundation and editor of the highly respected Health Beat Blog (www.healthbeatblog.org), can help sort out the answers to these critical questions. She has been an intelligent and informed voice in the current debate over health care reform. Through her blog, media interviews, and as a part of the Health Reform panel for the Washington Post, she has become known for her ability to cut through the political posturing and rhetoric and hone in on the important policy issues arising from this debate. Through her “Truth Squad” series, she also offers commentary on various efforts to spin or mislead the public about issues related to the reform effort. Download the press release.
