Panel to Examine Federal Health Reform, Consequences for Oregon

Oregon Health Forum is bringing experts from Washington, DC, to discuss federal proposals to overhaul U.S. healthcare.
March 8, 2017

Policy experts from Washington, D.C, will join Oregon healthcare leaders on the stage later this month to discuss Republican efforts to replace or revise the Affordable Care Act.

The commercial insurance marketplace would face new regulations under a bill introduced by Congressional Republicans, and could be changed still further under President Donald Trump’s proposal to create a national, rather than state-based, market.

On March 22, the Oregon Health Forum is bringing together experts who will delve into these proposed changes in-depth; breakfast will be served at 7 a.m. at the Multnomah Athletic Club, followed by discussion at 7:30. Click here to register

The panelists will be:

  • Anne Phelps, U.S. healthcare regulatory leader, Deloitte & Touche LLP in Washington, D.C.
  • Julie Barnes, vice president of policy and political strategy for Cambia Health Solutions, based in Washington, D.C.
  • Patrick Allen, director of the Oregon Department of Consumer and Business Services.
  • Larry Mullins, president and CEO, Samaritan Health Services.
  • Dr. Ralph Prows, chief medical officer, Adventist Health Medical Group.
