Info:
By the end of 2004, over 45 million Americans lacked medical coverage. Six million Americans lost coverage between 2000 and 2004. And according to Duke University's head of emergency medicine, the pressures on hospital trauma centers and emergency rooms have "reached levels unprecedented in AmericaÆs history."
Who pays for the uninsured? You do. We all do. When the uninsured have no place to go, America's emergency rooms become clinics of last resort for tens of millions of Americans. The fiscal stress for hospitals, businesses and taxpayers grows each day.
That's why the Chamber is proud to debut Insight Kansas City, a new program designed to give you the most current information possible from leaders in business and experts in government on issues critical to Kansas City. In 2006, our focus will be health care, ranging from the promise of new technologies to the perils of relentlessly rising costs
