OVERVIEWA critical focus of national policy discussion both going into and coming out of the presidential election has been the future of health care reform and the Affordable Care Act (ACA) – popularly known as Obamacare. Six years after the passage of the ACA, physicians and other health providers, as well as insurers, and employers, have all invested in substantial changes as the ACA has been implemented. With the November election, the Republican Party took control of Congress and the White House. As anticipated, the Republicans soon introduced their replacement plan for the ACA, the American Health Care Act (AHCA). However, after encountering sharp divisions in Congress, the AHCA was withdrawn from consideration. And so, the debate about repeal and replacement continues and grows more complex.

Just as the ACA dramatically impacted physicians, whatever may follow it will likely further disrupt health care providers and their patients in numerous ways. To that end, the 2017 Southern Illinois Healthcare (SIH)/Southern Illinois University (SIU) Health Policy Institute aims to bring together a panoply of speakers form multiple sectors and a range of viewpoints to explore the issues in a way that goes beyond the strongly held political positions that have captured the media attention.

PROGRAM OBJECTIVESAt the conclusion of this program, participants will be able to:1. Explore major changes in the health care

system under potential successors to the ACA;

2. Understand and critically evaluate these proposed changes, including changes to Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurance;

3. Articulate how proposed changes will impact the practice of medicine, as well as access and quality of care, including medical care for the elderly and vulnerable patients; and

4. Participate more effectively in discussions related to the ACA and proposed successors as the debate about national health policy continues.
