The Impact of Expanding Coverage on Health Care Access and Health Outcomes

With the implementation of the Affordable Care Act in 2010, decisions made at the state level play a significant role in the success of the law. This joint HPOE and Health Services Research journal webinar presented research evaluating the success of the ACA at the state level. In December, HSR published a theme issue on state health policy research, examining the impact the ACA has had, and will have, on state health care systems. Analysis from the focus issue, presented by the authors, will examine the impact of the ACA on health care access and health outcomes for adults.. 


During this webinar, participants learned about:

  • The recent HSR theme issue on state health policy research
  • The impact of Medicaid enrollment on health care utilization among low-income childless adults
  • Whether the Massachusetts health reform improved health outcomes for uninsured patients with chronic disease

Presenters:

  • Moderator: Michael Chernew, PhD, Professor of Health Care Policy, Harvard Medical School
  • Lynn Blewett, PhD, Principal Investigator, State Health Access Data Assistance Center, and Professor of Health Policy and Management, University of Minnesota School of Public Health
  • Marguerite Burns, PhD, Assistant Professor of Population Health Sciences, University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Medicine and Public Health
