“Rosemarie Day spoke to our cross sector summit of healthcare CEOs running insurance companies, provider organizations, pharmaceutical, device and other service companies about the implications of national healthcare reform, with a particular focus on how her own lessons learned from running the MA Health Connector would provide insight for those contemplating their role in the newly forming Healthcare Exchanges. Her session was highly rated, with one CEO saying she was 'the best speaker yet', partially because of her deep experience, strategic insight, understanding of a political operating environment, and her lack of defensiveness when pressed about issues such as general healthcare expenditure cost control.”

Rick Lord, Commonwealth Health Insurance Connector Authority Board Member and President & CEO, Associated Industries of Massachusetts, Inc.

“I worked with Rosemarie during the hectic early days of getting the nation's first health insurance exchange established in Massachusetts. As the Chief Operating Officer she was directly responsible for ensuring that several, large scale interconnected projects were managed and delivered on time and within budget. She has the rare combination of strategic vision and operational common sense which produces excellent outcomes, even on large, complicated objectives. She was a pleasure to work for as she remained calm and focused even during stressful situations and looming deadlines.”
