Article Commentary Written by: Todd Perman, CCIM, Executive Managing Director of Global Healthcare Services, Newmark
Politics! Is it now a four letter word? Over 84 million Americans watched the first presidential debate last week, all interested in the topics at hand and which topics were covered. Unfortunately the topic of Healthcare was not discussed.
