DEAN A. ROSEN

Dean Rosen has played a leading role in developing and advancing health policy for nearly two decades in the nation’s capital.  He has a deep understanding of America’s complex health care system and an equally intimate knowledge of politics and process.  A partner at MVC, Dean now provides policy counsel and strategic advice to policy makers, business leaders, trade association executives and not-for-profit organizations on a broad range of health issues.

Prior to joining MVC, Dean held a series of high-level positions in both government and the private sector.  Dean was the chief health care advisor to Senate Majority Leader William H. Frist, M.D. (R-TN).  He served first as staff director for the United States Senate Subcommittee on Public Health, then as the Majority Leader’s health policy director.  Previously, he was senior vice president of policy and general counsel for the Health Insurance Association of America (HIAA).  He came to HIAA from the House Ways and Means Health Subcommittee where, as majority counsel, he played a significant role in developing the Medicare provisions of the Balanced Budget Act of 1997.  Earlier, Dean served as health policy coordinator and majority counsel to the Senate Committee on Labor and Human Resources. 

Through his influential posts on Capitol Hill, Dean helped shepherd through Congress a long list of major legislative accomplishments, including the Medicare Prescription Drug Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003, the Patient Safety and Quality Improvement Act of 2005 and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA).

Dean also holds several academic posts and is a sought after public speaker and press commentator.  He lives with his family in Washington, D.C.
