RONALD WILLIAMS on health care reform and privacy

Part 1, September 9 2008: Ronald Williams, Chairman and CEO of Aetna, talks to Chrystia Freeland, US Managing Editor, about how all Americans should have access to health care coverage, why neither presidential candidate has a perfect solution for this issue and how health insurance should be compulsory and enforced by the government. Williams also talks about the weakness of the US system with regards to the Canadian and Western European models of health care, his advocacy for electronic health records and why the accusation that health insurance companies deny claims on purpose is an urban myth. Next week, David Childs of Clifford Chance. If you have a question for David Childs, please email it to the link below.
