Face the Facts        10:00 AM

NBC Connecticut   Host: Mike Hydeck

Uncertainty is a word we’ve been hearing a lot lately coming out of the state capitol. For the business industry, their concerns are two-fold. CBIA V.P. of Public Policy joins Mike to explain why what’s happening in D.C. and Hartford has businesses on edge, and how it is affecting job growth.

Sen. Saud Anwar (D-South Windsor), who is also physician, explains his concerns with a proposal to cap out-of-network charges. He went so far as to call it a “disaster.” The plan, proposed by the governor, is intended to limit skyrocketing health care costs. But opponents say it will end up harming patients and providers in the long run.
