• As physicians and health care providers continue
  to be exposed to a barrage of regulations,
  reduced incentives, and greater demands on our
  time, this CME-accredited activity will provide a
  forum for the open discussion of the issues that
  affect our practice, commitments to our
  patients, and the health of our Nation.
• This TOWN-HALL meeting will afford you the
  opportunity to present your perspective to a
  nationally recognized faculty representing key
  forces impacting the practice of medicine.
