State of the Industry: Protecting access amid funding cuts
|About the webinar:
The U.S. healthcare system has historically lacked a universal safety net. Nevertheless, there has been a prevailing expectation that federal and state policies would provide sufficient baseline subsidies to ensure most populations have access to care. However, recent policy changes — particularly the federal funding reductions associated with the OBBBA spending bill — now pose significant challenges to this assumption.
In this webinar, Advisory Board’s Wes Campbell and Optum’s Sasha Preble will discuss the impact of these federal funding cuts. They will explore the patchwork of services healthcare leaders will need to stitch together to safeguard community access, all while continuing to meet existing business objectives.
Things you'll learn:
- How recent federal funding cuts will impact access to healthcare for various populations
- Strategies healthcare leaders can use to preserve community access to care
- Ways to balance the need to maintain community access with existing business objective
