INDIANAPOLIS— Few, if any, issues are more critical to employers and employees than the future of health care. But with the fast-changing landscape of health care, including service offerings, insurance options, and government regulations, it’s one of the most challenging aspects of anyone’s personal or professional life to manage.

That’s why the Indiana Chamber of Commerce is launching the Health Care Transformation Summit. The inaugural Summit will be held June 10-11 at the Indiana Chamber Conference Center in downtown Indianapolis and feature a blue-chip lineup of panelists and speakers, including Dr. John Whyte, WebMD chief medical officer, who will give the closing keynote address.
