Innovative Eagle River Health Care Forum   

Monday, November 16

Wild Eagle Lodge, Eagle River

6 pm - Social / meet speakers

7 pm - Event panel discussion begins 

Health Care Reform is an issue that will touch every American life, and while everyone agrees that some type of reform is needed, there is much debate regarding what facets of our current health care system should be overhauled or modified.  To help area citizens understand the complexity of this issue, and give voice to their concerns and ideas, the Northwoods Patriots and the Vilas County Republican Party are hosting a Health Care Forum on Monday, November 16,  at Wild Eagle Lodge at 6:00 pm.  A time of socializing, meeting the forum speakers, and preparing questions will begin the event, with the forum starting at 7:00 pm.

The Health Care Forum  will have a question and answer format, with a moderator and panel of individuals representing all aspects of health care; an insured person, an insurance representative, a physician, a hospital administrator,  and an economics expert.

Moderator for the event is John “Skip” McCaughn, a Deacon for Horward Young Hospital and St. Theresa’s Church in Three Lakes, and former EMT for Eagle River and Conover.  

Gary Fawcett, Eagle River’s “2009 Man of the Year”  will represent the insured at the forum.  Fawcett has a unique insight from both sides of the issue, since he also worked in finance for the Green Bay office of Aid Association for Lutherans for 15 years. 

Oliver Burrows, an adjunct professor of Economics, ordained minister, and founder of EconomicTruth.org, a website dedicated to teaching people the truth about economics,  will address the economic impact of proposed changes to the health care system.

Surgeon Dr. Pamela Galloway will represent  a medical professional’s viewpoint on the panel.  Dr. Galloway has practiced at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Marshfield and St. Mary’s Hospital in Rhinelander.  She is currently a Senatorial Candidate for Wisconsin’s 29^th District, running against incumbent Russ Decker.  

Tim Nerenz, Ph.D.,  Executive Vice President of Oldenburg Group, Inc.  will represent a large employer’s interests and concerns in the panel discussions.  The Oldernburg Group,  headquarted in Milwaukee, WI, with a plant  in Rhinelander, is a global manufacturer of engineered products used in lighting, defense, mining and nuclear industries.  Nerenz has also recently declared his candidacy as a 2010 Libertarian Candidate for the US House of Representatives from Wisconsin’s 2^nd District, running against incumbent Tammy Baldwin.

A local Health Care Insurance agent will complete the panel to provide yet another viewpoint on the whole health care reform issue.

All area residents are invited to come to this non-partisan forum and bring their questions with them.  This is a unique opportunity to voice your concerns, get answers to your questions, and receive input on your ideas from all sides of the health care industry.
