Baker is expected to moderate a discussion on the budgetary impact of the new federal health reform law.

The Hewitt Health Care lecture is slated for March 9 at the Harvard Medical School.

Baker, a former health insurance executive and a top official in Republican state administrations, lost to Democratic Governor Deval Patrick in the November election.

The other speakers at the event include Douglas Holtz-Eakin, who is president of a conservative think tank, and Jonathan Gruber, an economics professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Both have held high government posts. Holtz-Eakin also advised John McCain's presidential campaign, while Gruber advised the Clinton, Edwards, and Obama campaigns.
