Comfortable with Healthcare Reform
The dust is finally settling from healthcare reform. As an industry we are starting to see everyone understanding how healthcare reform works and will effect them and they are starting to get back to business as usual and moving forward. It is nice to see the industry no longer stuck on an uncertain future, not sure what direction to move in, or even to move at all because of how unsure they were about healthcare reform Everyone has gotten into their post healthcare reform routine, and they are finally comfortable with it. Some may not be happy with it, they may not even like it, but they finally understand it and are moving forward accordingly. This is important, because our industry needs to move forward and not be stuck in time, or so focused on uncertainty that we are afraid to make decisions.
