MedTouch Webinar: The Impact of the Global Financial Crisis on Healthcare, Part II from MedTouch on Vimeo.

The news about the financial sector meltdown is everywhere, but how will it impact healthcare?

In this second part of a special webinar, Paul Griffiths, the CEO of MedTouch, will walk through how the sub-prime crisis led into Wall St. failures, which has spilled over into the bond market, threatening usual routes of funding for healthcare, muncipalities, and non-profits.

We’ll review what hard decisions providers will have to make over the coming year, and talk through some possible short and long term results from the financial bailout.
