Tom Feeney: Expect to be ‘Offended’ by Views at Health Care Summit

Associated Industries of Florida President Tom Feeney says with 330 attendees the just-started 2013 Florida Heath Care Affordability Summit at the World Center Marriott in Orlando is already a success.

We have to get health care right, there is no alternative, Feeney said, whose business advocacy organization intends to present proposals on revamping health care in Florida for the 2013 legislative session, and for future sessions.

He also advised attendees that all opinions are welcome at the two-day event, noting, If you sit through and pay attention youre going to be offended by something somebody says at some point and that is exactly what we hope to achieve.

The summit has a number of panels ranging from private sector and public sector health care solutions to modernizing Floridas health care delivery system.

U.S. Rep. Tom Price, R-Ga., chairman of the Republican Policy Committee, is to give a keynote address tonight.
