Gingrich Think Tank Comes to St. Louis

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich was in town yesterday to discuss the new Missouri initiative of his Center for Health Transformation, his DC-based think tank.

The focus of the luncheon at the Chase Park Plaza Hotel was how the state fits into the Center’s vision of a “21st Century Intelligent Health System that saves lives and saves money.”

Julie Eckstein, a former director of the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services, is leading Gingrich’s Missouri effort, which will have an office at Westport Plaza.

CHT has offices in DC, Atlanta and now St. Louis.
