April 3, 2009 (Alpharetta, GA) Former Speaker of the House of Representatives Newt Gingrich visited Jackson Healthcare (JH) and spoke with Rick Jackson.  Newt Gingrich, who is the Founder of the Center for Health Transformation (CHT), became interested in Jackson Healthcare due to JH's success in the healthcare market, Rick Jackson's success as an entrepreneur, his thought provoking articles on healthcare,  and Jackson Healthcare Chariites' interest in the welfare and safety of children and the recent articles Rick has authored.

It is an honor to be considered as a member of the CHT. The Center for Health Transformation is a high-impact collaboration of private and public sector leaders committed to creating a 21st Century Intelligent Health System that saves lives and saves money for all Americans. The Center is based on the following premise: Small changes or reactionary fixes to separate pieces of the current system have not and will not work. We need a system-wide transformation. Unlike other alliances, the Center unites stakeholders across the spectrum (providers, employers, vendors, trade associations, disease groups, think tanks) and government leaders at both the state and federal level to drive transformation according to a shared vision and key principles.  More information on the Center can be found at http://www.healthtransformation.net/ .
