About this event


Florida is the top state in the nation for the percentage of the population accessing insurance
through the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Healthcare cuts are expected to significantly impact Sarasota
County and the rest of Florida by making health insurance unaffordable for millions,
leading to higher numbers of uninsured individuals, increasing strain on hospitals and causing
worse health outcomes.

Our expert panelists,  Holly Bullard and Irene Fleshner,  will shine a light on the local  impact
of these federal healthcare cuts in terms of access and affordability.

Some of the topics to be discussed include:

  • How Florida’s  Medicaid requirements and coverage compare to other states. 
  • How proposed policy changes would affect the current requirements for financial  assistance for healthcare.
  • What are “enhanced subsidies” to ACA and how will their expiration affect premiums?

    Q&A session will follow.
