About this Event
Dr. Lee Fleisher, former Chief Medical Officer of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, is a leading expert in healthcare quality and delivery system reform. A practicing anesthesiologist and longtime faculty member at the University of Pennsylvania, his work has focused on improving care outcomes through better alignment of incentives, measurement, and clinical practice.
Dr. Jerome Adams, former U.S. Surgeon General, previously served as Indiana’s State Health Commissioner and has been a national voice on public health, health equity, and community-level interventions. His tenure as Surgeon General spanned major public health challenges, including the opioid epidemic and the COVID-19 pandemic, where he worked to translate complex health guidance into actionable messaging for the American public.
This discussion will explore the current state of U.S. health policy in light of the changing political environment under the Trump administration, with a focus on the most pressing challenges facing Americans today – from healthcare access and affordability to public health preparedness and system capacity. The conversation will also examine how policymakers and practitioners can respond to these challenges, outlining potential policy pathways and actionable solutions to strengthen the healthcare system going forward.
It is especially relevant for students interested in public policy, healthcare, and political science.
