Strengthening America’s Healthcare System

 

Despite record numbers of Americans having access to healthcare coverage since the passage of the Affordable Care Act, millions still remain uninsured.

How can we ensure all Americans have access to quality, affordable care? How can stakeholders collaborate to strengthen the ACA and improve patient health? And what role can policymakers play in addressing issues like coverage, cost and barriers to access? 

On December 7, The Hill will explore the current and future state of American healthcare and opportunities for improvement when it convenes leading members of Congress, healthcare administrators, patient advocates and more for a series of timely conversations.
