If anyone in government - local, state or federal - had the cure for all of the problems in health care today, they would be a miracle worker. The question is immensely complex and the issues incredibly diffuse. There is no one-size-fits-all answer that resolves all of the problems all at once. However, working together, we often can find solutions that take giant steps forward. This week - in concert with the University of Connecticut, the UConn Health Center, hospitals throughout the region, our Congressional delegation and many others - I have proposed a landmark partnership that will transform the delivery of health care in Connecticut and lead to the creation of thousands of new jobs.
