CBIA'S 193 ANNUAL MEETING
National health care expert and author of landmark health care book is keynote speaker
In Connecticut and across the nation, our health care system is in dire need of improvement —and the best solution is value-based competition. So says Elizabeth Teisberg, one of the nation's leading experts in health care policy and strategy. Co-author with Michael Porter of the landmark book, Redefining Health Care: Creating Value-Based Competition on Results, Dr. Teisberg is the keynote speaker at the Connecticut Business & Industry Association's (CBIA's) annual meeting on Oct. 29, at 5 p.m.
Wed., Oct. 29, 2008

Hundreds of business leaders from across the state will gather to hear Teisberg discuss the importance of taking a comprehensive approach to health care reform — one that controls costs, improves patient outcomes and creates greater value for our health care dollars.
A cocktail reception will follow at 6 p.m.
