Gingrich to visit St. Louis Next Week

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, the last of the potential presidential candidates who hasn't jumped in (but could in September), will be in St. Louis next week.

He'll appear the Chase Park Plaza Hotel in St. Louis on Tuesday. His Center for Health Transformation is stepping up shop in Missouri.

From the press release:

The Center first announced plans to launch the Missouri Project in April of this year, committing the organization to the mission of creating a healthy Missouri in which knowledge saves lives and saves money for all Missourians. The Project is an opportunity to replicate the successes of CHT's groundbreaking Georgia Project, launched in 2003, which includes initiatives related to diabetes and obesity, e-prescribing, eliminating minority health disparities, creating affordable coverage for all and increasing access to cost and quality information. In both states, the Center sees a unique opportunity to generate and implement projects to test solutions that promote value-based healthcare, increase access, and reduce costs.
