Following the initial White House Forum on Health Reform, and then the regional forums across the country, we began holding what we called Health Care Stakeholder Discussions here at the White House. Keeping with the President’s dedication to transparency in the health reform process, we streamed these meetings live here at WhiteHouse.gov.
It took quite a bit of processing, but we’re pleased to post the video of eight of these meetings below on a wide variety of subjects. All of them were very interesting conversations, and once we got the technology up and running we even found ways to include feedback from our online chats in the meetings.

For the sake of transparency, it is worth noting that the first of these meetings was held on March 26, 2009, and while it was open press we were not able to stream it in part due to the online town hall that was streamed on the same day.
