"Health Care at the Crossroads" will be the topic of the Solano Economic Development Corp. breakfast meeting Wednesday at the Hilton Garden Inn in Fairfield.

Guest speakers include Jack Horn, CEO of Partnership HealthPlan of California and Assemblywoman Lois Wolk, D-Solano.

The breakfast discussion will cover budget cuts that took effect July 1, putting hundreds of thousands of Californians at risk of losing access to quality health care. Partnership HealthPlan of California serves more than 5,000 local residents, providing health care to uninsured children and low- to middle-income residents, but state funding issues may force Partnership to close its doors.

Registration begins at 7:30 a.m. with the program starting at 8 a.m. The cost is $25 for Solano EDC members and $35 for non-members, which can be paid at the door.

To register, call 864-1855 or e-mail pat@solanoedc.org.
