  9. Our vision is still clear

  10. …..like the pioneers of the 1800’s, on a very new frontier known as [managed care/health care reform/MRT.] Preparing for this journey will require each of us to leave what may be familiar ground, to learn new skills, to change your habits and to commit to journey that we know will be filled with cycles of remarkable progress and inevitable setbacks.

  11. There is no single script or road map that will work universally. We don’t have a Santa Fe Trail but we do have a common vision. Actually it is the same as the pioneers vision that drove them forward….a better life, better opportunities for themselves and for the people for whom they were responsible.
