PIA Member Testifies on Healthcare

Pittsburgh, PA—Printing Industries of America member and president of Inland Press in Detroit, Michigan, Brad Thompson, testified before the House Committee on Small Business regarding healthcare reform and the need to consider common-ground solutions from a small-business perspective.

At the hearing, Thompson discussed the health care challenges both his company and other small printers face, including increasing costs for business owners as well as their employees. Thompson told the committee that Inland Press investigated raising co-pays for prescription drugs and doctor visits, but it was determined that these minor adjustments are not enough and real reform and solutions are now necessary.
