The Grand Junction model for health care

After two months of dormancy, the nation's health care reform debate restarts this week with a Thursday summit between the president and members of Congress. President Barack Obama on Monday unveiled a package of sweeping health reforms, which draws on elements of reform bills already passed in the U.S. House and Senate.

Here in Colorado, a relatively new news service is putting out a series of reports this week examining how health reforms in Grand Junction have led to lower costs and better outcomes for patients. The five-part series from Colorado Public News started Monday with an article headlined: "Grand Junction’s healthcare system: A model of low cost, high quality."
