Legends of healthcare convene
Last week we saw health insurer subsidies axed and a new EO that allows catastrophic plans back on the market. Here are two takes on the changes. Tomorrow, we talk about the road ahead with Bipartisan Policy Center’s Andy Slavitt at our sixth Rock Health Summit.
Also at the Summit: FDA’s Bakul Patel will discuss a regulation scheme to maintain healthcare innovation’s momentum. Meanwhile, his boss is skirting talk about moving to HHS, saying he’s most effective at the FDA.
We’re so excited to see many of you tomorrow and talk digital health with legendary individuals like pioneering mind Mary Lou Jepsen, privacy guru Lucia Savage, prolific entrepreneur Sami Inkinen, Verily CMO Jessica Mega, addiction fighter Alan Levy, and so many more.
