Denis McDonough will be present at the meeting. White House meeting with insurance chiefs

The White House is meeting with CEOs of health plans on Wednesday, according to two insurance industry sources.

The insurance executives are meeting with Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett and chief of staff Denis McDonough, the sources told POLITICO on Tuesday evening. The White House didn’t immediately confirm the meeting.
