Beyond the ACA: Health Policy and Sustainable Health Spending

The Affordable Care Act and the basic structure of the 52-year old Medicaid program remain front and center in today’s policy and political discussions. But what comes next? How will the gargantuan health sector be affected across multiple dimensions, including long-term care, prices, jobs, coverage, quality, and equity? And what is the outlook for health care cost control and sustainability in the medium- and long-term?

Altarum's 7th annual sustainable health spending symposium, which took place on July 18, 2017 in Washington DC, featured a distinguished panel of experts who sought to address to these questions. If you were unable to attend the conference or would like a revisit the material in greater detail, you can download a full symposium monograph of the event.
