BAKER – LEVY HEALTHCARE SMACKDOWN!!!!!

Ok, maybe that’s a bit dramatic. Or a lot dramatic, but interesting nevertheless.

Paul Levy and Charlie Baker Jr. are two of the state’s healthcare leaders. And each is blogging. Charlie just started his, and Paul has been going for awhile (and writing very interesting stuff).

They have a back and forth on healthcare cost drivers on Charlie’s blog that is fascinating. I won’t summarize it here, but they get into the issue of cost transparency and how Massachusetts’ current healthcare reform may play a role in cost control.
