Presented by the Carroll Department of Political Science, the panel will explore the future of health care provision in America in the wake of the passage of the Affordable Care Act in 2009, Barack Obama's signature piece of domestic legislation. The panel will review what has improved, what has gotten worse, and what to expect from the future in terms of health care. The panel will explore these issues from multiple perspectives: legal issues, Medicaid, a perspective from the insurance companies, and the evolving politics. The panelists include: Brian Matz, professor of theology and chair of the panel; Jeremy Johnson, professor of political science; Jessica Rhoades from the Director's Office of the Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services; Christina Goe, General Counsel of the Montana Office of the Commissioner of Securities and Insurance; and Carroll graduate Odie Otterstrom '12, representative from Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Montana. The event is free and the Helena community is encouraged to attend.
