invite you to join us for
Healthcare at the Intersection of Government and Markets
May 4 - 5, 2009
Fairmont Hotel, Washington D.C.

For the first time, HBS Health Industry Alumni Association (HBSHIAA) and the Young Presidents' Healthcare Forum (YPO Health) are coming together to sponsor Healthcare at the Intersection of Government and Markets May 4-5, 2009 in Washington, DC.
The purpose of this forum is to bring together national health care leaders from our two organizations for an in-depth, nonpartisan discussion and analysis of the key issues, problems, and potential solutions to achieving comprehensive health care reform. Afterward, the conference sponsors will produce a white paper that gleans the most cogent concepts, controversies, and conclusions arising from our presentations and discussions, for distribution to the speakers and attendees
