Obama-Biden Transition Team Health Care Listening Session

Tuesday, December 30th 4pm - 6pm Arnold/Howard Room, Augusta Civic Center, Augusta, Maine
Sponsored by: Maine Medical Association (MMA), the Maine Osteopathic Association (MOA) and the Downeast Association of Physician Assistants (DEAPA)
Moderators: Gordon Smith, Esq., EVP of MMA and Joel Kase, D.O., MPH, President-elect of MOA
As we work to revamp our health care system, we need to hear from you. There is no problem that we cannot solve together-and it is out of our collective wisdom and experience that we will identify potential solutions to the many health care challenges that we face. We need to hear your ideas and your stories so that we can report them to the President-elect. Your answers will guide our collective effort to reform the U.S. health system.
This session is one of nearly 5000 scheduled the last two weeks of December across the country. Comments offered at the session will be recorded and forwarded to the transition team for its use in its effort to prepare health care reform legislation.
