State Policy Solutions: Expanding Health Care Access with Mobile Vans

February 13 @ 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm
Free
WEBINAR

Mobile health programs are an effective and affordable way to bring vital care to rural residents and other hard-to-reach communities. Against a backdrop of looming Medicaid cuts and the $50 billion Rural Health Transformation Program, how can state policymakers better support these “doctor’s offices on wheels” and improve access to care?

Join Georgetown University’s Center on Health Insurance Reforms upcoming webinar to explore state-level policy options for expanding mobile health across your state.

Alongside state policymakers, local advocates, community providers and other participants, you’ll learn:   
  • Why mobile care improves health, fills workforce gaps, and lowers costs.
  • How integrating mobile programs into your state’s health system can extend the reach of brick-and-mortar facilities and break through internet dead zones.
  • What federal and state policymakers have done in recent years to support mobile health care delivery and what policy gaps remain.

Speakers include:

  • Mary Kathryn Fallon, CPA, Co- Executive Director at The Family Van and Mobile Health Map
  • Maanasa Kona, JD, LLM, Associate Research Professor, Center on Health Insurance Reforms (CHIR) at Georgetown University’s McCourt School of Public Policy
  • Emma Lo, MD, Medical Director, Street Psychiatry Program at the Connecticut Mental Health Center
  • Michele Stanek, MHS, Associate Director, South Carolina Center for Rural and Primary Healthcare

Audience Q&A will follow the discussion.
