Mark Bertolini, MBA Biography
- Title:
- President of Aetna
- Position:
- Con to the question "Is the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) Good for America?"
- Reasoning:
-
“We won’t be able to afford it [the health care reform bill]. The state of Massachusetts is well over a billion dollars in debt as a result of what they are doing with their health reform, and they’ve already started to call for payment reform in the way of global payments for providers, so I think it doesn’t take a genius to see that ultimately costs will become an issue. The economic problems of this nation are largely around healthcare and entitlement, and I think we will need to address costs.”
