One of the most respected and forward-thinking leaders on U.S. health care policy, Dr. Mark McClellan addresses America’s current and future health care challenges.
As the only person to have led both the Food & Drug Administration and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), Mark McClellan shares with audiences a behind-the-scenes assessment of America’s health care system and what needs to be done to fix it. While overseeing a budget larger than that of the Pentagon’s at CMS, McClellan was not business as usual as he tackled one of the most important issues of our time head-on, and instituted the largest health care policy reforms in over 40 years—from the Medicare prescription drug benefit to numerous public-private initiatives—which have a profound impact on your health care future. An activist and innovator, McClellan explains what it takes to successfully navigate the medical, economic and social issues surrounding current policy, while encouraging consumers to take ownership of their treatment. As a political appointee who served under Presidents Clinton and George W. Bush, McClellan is a two-time recipient of the Arrow Award for Outstanding Research in Health Economics. In 2015, Duke University appointed McClellan the Robert J. Margolis MD Professor of Business, Medicine and Health Policy. The University additionally named McClellan its inaugural director of a new health policy center, which was founded the same year with the goal to develop and implement new health reform.
