BOSTON (AP) - Gov. Deval Patrick is heading back to Washington, D.C.
Patrick's first meeting Thursday afternoon is with Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius.
The two are scheduled to discuss health care and cost containment issues. Patrick will also address a professional development event Sebelius is holding with her staff.
Patrick then visits with Israeli Ambassador Michael Oren. Patrick met Oren over the summer and Oren had invited him to Washington.
