Prescription for Growth: Health Care & Job Creation
WASHINGTON, Sept. 9 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Health care is projected to be one of the fastest growing segments in the job market in the coming years, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

This event will examine employment trends in the health care sector, the potential impact of health care legislation as an economic engine, the quality and scope of new health-related jobs and the role of the federal government and private industry in preparing a highly skilled workforce.
