Join us on March 13 at the UNH Franklin Pierce School of Law for a vital discussion on the crisis in affordable healthcare. With healthcare costs continuing to rise, the affordability crisis is threatening federal, state, and family budgets, with almost 70% of people in New Hampshire delaying or going without healthcare in the last year due to cost. Federal and state policy responses are in flux.
Award-winning health reporter Noam N. Levey, a senior correspondent with KFF Health News, and Health and Life Sciences Law Professor Lucy Hodder will discuss federal and state responses to this crisis and their prospects for making healthcare more – or less – affordable.
Recent developments that could have major consequences include cuts to Medicare and Medicaid, drastic changes to the ACA and its individual marketplace coverage, and a departure from previous Trump and Biden administration efforts to cut prescription drug prices.
The discussion will be moderated by Laura Knoy, Community Engagement Director for Rudman Center.
When: March 13, 2025, 5:45 – 7:15 p.m., followed by a reception.
Where: The UNH Franklin Pierce School of Law, 2 White Street, Concord, NH, Room 282. (Please use the entrance on the corner of Washington and Rumford Streets.)
A Zoom link will be provided for those who prefer to join remotely.
Registration is required. Please register here by March 12.
This event is generously sponsored by the Peter G. Peterson Foundation, which provides support for an annual fiscal responsibility symposium at the UNH Franklin Pierce School of Law.
