Aaron Bean at AIF Power Lunch

Rep. Aaron Bean (R-Fernandina Beach), Chairman of the House Healthcare Council, was the featured speaker at AIF’s first Power Lunch Event for the year.  Rep. Bean has risen through the ranks to become one of the most influential chairmen under the House’s Council system.  Rep. Bean shared some of his insights into the latest developments taking place in Florida’s healthcare system as well as his projections of what the budget process might look like this year.  An excellent dialogue took place between AIF members and Chairman Bean.  Members thanked the Chairman for holding the line on expensive mandates, which raise the price of health insurance.

AIF will continue to hold Power Lunches throughout the year featuring such speakers as CFO Alex Sink, Attorney General Bill McCollum, and others.
