As the close of the current term of the US Supreme Court draws near, many in the country are closely watching for important decisions that may profoundly affect health care access and delivery in America.
Topics are likely to include cases on affirmative action, environmental health, and the decision on Health and Hospital Corporation of Marion County v Talevski, that ensured the preservation of federal Medicaid guarantees as privately enforceable legal rights. On July 10, Health Affairs Editor-in-Chief Alan Weil will host a discussion of these decisions and their implications with a panel of analysts including:
Thomas Barker, Partner and Co-Chair, Healthcare Practice, Foley Hoag
Sara Rosenbaum, the Harold and Jane Hirsh Professor of Health Law and Policy and Founding Chair of the Department of Health Policy at the Milken Institute School of Public Health, George Washington University

A recent pair of Health Policy Briefs from Health Affairs examined residential segregation in the U.S. as a structural determinant of health and described polices, programs and evolving case law addressing residential segregation. In Residential Segregation And Health: History, Harms, And Next Steps, Justin Steil and Mariana Arcaya discuss the origins of U.S. residential segregation and it role in mediating exposure to key social determinants of health. In“Public Policies To Address Residential Segregation And Improve Health,” Michael Lens and Justin Steil examine initiatives to combat more than a century of exclusionary policies embedded in land use and housing codes. On Thursday, July 13, you are invited to join Health Affairs for an Insider “Lunch and Learn” discussion of the Briefs with authors Justin Steil of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Michael Lens of UCLA.Health Affairs Deputy Editor Rob Lott will host.
