The debate, on the budgetary impact of the federal law, was moderated by Charles Baker, Jr., former Massachusetts gubernatorial candidate and ex-CEO of Harvard Pilgrim Health Care. The debate touched on the Cadillac tax on insurance, economic growth, the politics to get a bill passed, and increase in government spending, federal waivers, cost containment, and payment reform among others.

Earlier this spring, Dr. Jeffrey S. Flier, Dean of Harvard Medical School, gave Pioneer Institute?s annual Hewitt Health Care Lecture. Occurring just days after the passage of the massive federal health care law, Dr. Flier gave a provocative talk that outlined his concerns about health care reform over two decades and especially in the new law. Building on his Wall Street Journal opinion pieces that ran previous to the passage of the law, Dr. Flier provided a much-needed wake-up call from the perspective of a top researcher, practitioner and dean of one of arguably the world?s greatest medical school.
