The Latest Research, Commentary, And News From Health Affairs
September 26, 2021
Dear John,
Read on for highlights from Health Affairs this week.
What's New In Health Affairs

In a paper released this week ahead of the October issue, Perinatal
Mental Health & More, Maeve Wallace and colleagues investigated the
association between domestic violence-related firearm possession bans
and relinquishment laws and reductions in pregnancy-associated homicide.
"States that had both prohibited firearm possession and required firearm
relinquishment by people convicted of a domestic violence-related
misdemeanor experienced 3.74 fewer deaths per 100,000 live birth
s
than would have been expected in the absence of either law," the authors
found.
This week on Health Affairs Blog, Christopher Morten, Zain Rizvi, and
Ameet Sarpatwari argued that President Biden should share the COVID-19
vaccine recipe
with the World Health Organization-which has asked for it-and with
vaccine manufacturers with whom the Department of Health and Human
Services chooses to partner.
And Katie Keith discussed new data from HHS and CMS showing record-high
effectuated enrollment through Marketplace coverage under the ACA
.

You are invited to join us on Tuesday, September 28, for "Following the
ACA: A Status Check," featuring Health Affairs Contributing Editor Katie
Keith.
****More than a decade since it was signed into law, the Affordable Care
Act has been baked into every part of the health care system. The law
has been a success on many measures, but its impact on other
indicators-such as health care costs-is far from clear.
As Congress considers new ways to build upon the law, join us to learn
more about the history of health reform, what it has meant for access to
coverage and care, and what to expect next from Congress and the White
House.
The session is intended to be highly interactive, and participants will
interact directly with the speaker. Chris Fleming, Health Affairs blog
editor, will moderate.
Date:Â Â Â Tuesday, September 28, 2021
Time: Â Â 1:00 p.m. - 2:00 p.m. (EDT)
Place:Â Â Â Online details will be shared with registrants 24 hours in
advance of the event
