  A Gathering Storm in Healthcare       Print
Dear Friend:

There is a storm gathering on the healthcare horizon - a storm threatening the availability, quality and cost of future healthcare.

Alegent Health is committed to working with our community on the volatile issues at the heart of this storm.

We want to do our part to address the increasing numbers of uninsured and underinsured patients and escalating healthcare costs. We want to talk with you about how we manage the costs associated with new regulations, rapidly diminishing government reimbursement and recently filed class action lawsuits against not-for-profit healthcare organizations. We want to help lead community efforts to ease the burden these and other challenges place on people, as we all work together to make quality healthcare more affordable and more accessible for everyone.

We have prepared this briefing in the interest of exchanging information and initiating a dialogue that will enable our community to weather this storm.

Sincerely,

Wayne A. Sensor
Chief Executive Officer
Alegent Health
