(AP) — Two state lawmakers and a national health-policy expert are set to speak about the future of health care in Nebraska.
The University of Nebraska Medical Center is hosting a health-policy meeting on Wednesday from 9 a.m. to noon at the Michael F. Sorrell Center for Health Science Education.
The keynote speaker is Alan Weil, executive director of the National Academy for State Health Policy. Nebraska state Sens. Kathy Campbell and Mike Gloor are also scheduled to lead the meeting.
More than 150 health care experts from around the state are meeting to talk about Nebraska’s health care system. Campbell and Gloor are leading a legislative push this year to find ways to control health care costs at the state level while improving quality.
