Important: Health Action January 25-27 (Elizabeth Warren and others will speak)

http://familiesusa.org/ha2018

Health Action Conference 2018

Join us January 25-27, 2018 for the 23rd annual Health Action conference, held once again at the Hyatt Regency Washington on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C. 

LATEST: Senator Elizabeth Warren will be speaking at the conference!

Check out the agenda-at-glance, which is updated frequently as we finalize workshops and confirm speakers. 

It has never been more critical for consumers and leaders in the health care community to come together than in 2018.

Congressional leaders know that health care is an issue people care about deeply and that only bipartisan action can build on and improve the Affordable Care Act. The Health Action conference will bring together state and national experts and leaders to bring into sharp focus the range of choices and their impact on the nation’s health care system.

Health Action is also a celebration of the incredible work that is being done across the nation to protect the advances made under the Affordable Care Act, as well as an opportunity to create models for health system improvements and transformations for the years ahead.
