National Health Care: A Community Conversation

Hosted by the University of Missouri-Kansas City and the
MidAmerica Minority Business Development Council

Free and open to the public


In a historic vote, the U.S. House of Representatives approved the Senate Health Care Reform Bill, which was signed into law by President Obama. The debate continues, however, as Americans work through the complex issues, rhetoric and opinions to discern what's in our best interest and what we should expect next.

Please join UMKC and a distinguished panel of experts for a non-partisan, fact-based discussion designed to simplify and present the current state of this new health care reform legislation and its implications for both health care providers and health care consumers.

 

Participants:

• David Achtenberg, Law Foundation Scholar and Professor of Law, UMKC School of Law

 

• Arif Ahmed, B.D.S, Ph.D., M.S.P.H., Assistant Professor of Health Administration, UMKC Henry W. Bloch School of Business and Public Administration
