Smith: Provider innovation, not government, will reform health care

I am pleased to see the Supreme Court ruling as the key part of this act was insurance reform to protect patients. That this will be preserved is good. Real health care reform will come from the innovators in the provider community, not government mandates. This will move forward based on creative health systems, not regulations.
