Rebalancing Health Care in the Heartland

Iowa’s health care landscape continues to be shaped by powerful forces. The Supreme Court’s ruling on the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, the November elections, ongoing federal budget negotiations, and new legislation could profoundly influence the future direction of health policy.  Despite the uncertainty, changes are occurring that will likely continue in the years ahead, such as providers and insurers working together to increase accountability for the cost and quality of care, and payments based on value, not volume.

On November 13, 2012, the University of Iowa Health Sciences Policy Council will host, “Rebalancing Health Care in the Heartland 5: Shaping Iowa’s Health Care Landscape” with keynote speaker Susan Dentzer at the Embassy Suites in Des Moines.

Join fellow Iowans for this non-partisan, one-day conference focused on the significant changes and resulting challenges in health services delivery today. Your participation is vital to shaping an outstanding health care system for Iowa.
