"The Fair Care Act of 2020: Market-Based Universal Coverage"
Join us for a program that is designed to provide health insurance and financial service professionals an overview of The Fair Care Act of 2020. The presentation will explain how this bill would expand health insurance coverage while
reducing costs and increasing innovation.
Presented by Avik Roy, President of the Foundation for Research on Equal Opportunity - a non-partisan, non-profit think tank that conducts original research on expanding opportunity to those who least have it. Roy’s work has been praised widely on both the right and the left. National Review has called him one of the nation’s “sharpest policy minds,” while the New York Times’ Paul Krugman described him as man of “personal and moral courage.”
For the final hour of the program, we have invited Sen. Deb Fischer, Rep. Don Bacon, and Rep. Jeff Fortenberry to join Avik for a discussion on health insurance issues, with plenty of time for Q&A from attendees.
Avik Roy has advised three presidential candidates on policy, including Marco Rubio, Rick Perry, and Mitt Romney. He is widely known for his work on health care reform. NBC’s Chuck Todd, on Meet the Press, said Roy was one “of the most thoughtful guys [who has] been debating” health care reform. MSNBC’s Chris Hayes calls Roy's Forbes blog, The Apothecary, “one of the best takes from conservatives on that set of issues.” Ezra Klein, in the Washington Post, called The Apothecary one of the few “blogs I disagree with [that] I check daily.”
Roy is the author of How Medicaid Fails the Poor, and Medicare Advantage for All: A Patient-Centered Plan for Universal Coverage and Permanent Fiscal Solvency. He is a senior advisor to the Bipartisan Policy Center, serves on the advisory boards of the National Institute for Health Care Management and the Milken Center for Advancing the American Dream, and co-chaired the Fixing Veterans Health Care Policy Taskforce.
This program will provide three hours of Life & Health CE for Nebraska and Iowa Insurance, pending approvals.
