The Green Mountain Care Board was created by the Legislature in 2011 to ensure that changes in health care policy both improve service and reduce costs. The board regulates hospital budgets and has had a key role in the development of Vermont’s health insurance exchange. When board chair Anya Rayder Wallack stepped down and Al Gobeille took the helm, a spot on the board was opened.
Governor Shumlin has now appointed Betty Rambur to the position. Rambur is a professor of Health Policy and Nursing at UVM. She spoke with VPR's Jane Lindholm about what she expects to contribute to the board.
