The Boston Congress of Public Health (BCPH) seeks panelists for its final spring webinar, “Paving the Way for Healthcare Access to Undocumented Immigrants” set for Thursday, April 11, 2024, from 4:00 – 6:00 PM EST.
About the Webinar: In this thought-provoking discussion, panelists will discuss the legal and societal frameworks and potential impacts of California’s expansion of its Medi-Cal program as of January 2024. The expansion speaks to California’s history as a sanctuary state, having piloted managed care in Medicaid in the 1970s. Its proactive, progressive policies are intended to support the general population’s well-being, but will fiscal, political, and sociocultural realities derail the new expansion’s intended impact?
Who should sign up to be a panelist?
We are looking for panelists to share their insights and stories about the impact of these policies on the health and well-being of California.
What are the benefits of participation?
Benefits of being a panel member include promotion on the BCPH/HPHR website and social media channels.
How do I sign up?
If you are seriously interested in participating as a panelist, please indicate by completing this form. (It is also available by clicking the button below.)
