Intelligent Health: Exploring the value of innovation in health care

We hosted another fabulous conference in our series about the value of innovation in health care on March 25 in Washington. Our terrific team at the Galen Institute put together a dynamite list of speakers who talked about the remarkable new technologies that bring us the medical miracles we have come to expect from our health sector.

But these will certainly be threatened by the suffocating government bureaucracy of ObamaCare, patent rights being seized by foreign governments, and the reluctance of investors to support the huge and expensive risks of developing new medicines and technologies if government bureaucrats can arbitrarily block their entry to market.

Agenda, speaker bios, audio, and video are available here.

Save the Date: Politicians, Public Options, and Patients: What the Canadian Experience Teaches Us About Political Control of Health Care

Galen Institute and the Hudson Institute cordially invite you to a discussion on "Politicians, Public Options, and Patients: What the Canadian Experience Teaches Us About Political Control of Health Care." The health reform debate in the U.S. is moving toward proposals that would put more and more health care and coverage decisions under government control. To discuss how this plays out in reality, Brian Lee Crowley, an expert on the Canadian health system, will provide insights into the likely consequences of what the public plan and other measures will mean for the United States.
