The two-day 2009 Summit will be the first under a new president and Congress, and will therefore discuss how the delivery of healthcare may change with the new administration, in addition to focusing on potential legislation that may affect long-term care pharmacy in the coming years. Keynote speaker David Gergen will provide insight on the recent presidential election and proposed direction and initiatives of the new Congress. He will join other featured health care, insurance, and government industry speakers in exploring new business opportunities for long-term care pharmacies.
As an active participant in American national life for 30 years, Mr. Gergen provides valuable political expertise. His demonstrated success in the past as presidential adviser, best-selling author and commentator, along with his current accomplishments as editor and political analyst, makes Mr. Gergen's presence at the 2009 Business Summit all the more inviting.
"MHA is very excited to have David Gergen speak at the 2009 Business Summit. I followed Mr. Gergen on CNN during the presidential campaign," says Michael J. Sicilian, President of MHA. "His keen grasp and understanding of the American political process lent significant insight into the recent presidential campaign and his ongoing commentary on the political environment in 2009 will also bring additional value. Mr. Gergen is a great addition to the Business Summit and we look forward to having him be our keynote speaker."
