Transcript (slightly modified for readability)
Happy anniversary—20th—for AJMC. I've been following the journal for about as long as I remember. I probably could honeslty say about 20 years. Co-editors-in-chief Drs Mark Fendrick and Mike Chernew have been great friends and great supports of the work I've done over the years. And I've been particularly pleased not only to work with them but to access information about what is happenig in the world of managed care, in the world of value, reimbursement, and plan design from the sorts of publications that AJMC has made available not only to managed care companies, but to physicians and other types of executives. I'm thankful for your involvement.
I'm also grateful for the fact that the first article about my first company, a company called ActiveHealth, was actually published in 2005 in The American Journal of Managed Care. So I have a long history with the journal and am very grateful to the great work you've done.
