Webinar: How Might the Pandemic Affect Health Premiums, Utilization,
and Outcomes in 2021 and Beyond? As
the coronavirus pandemic enters its eighth month, we are still facing
uncertainty about what the long-term impact of the crisis will be for the
health sector, and for patients. However, the extent to which costs grow, and
how the burden is distributed across payers, programs, individuals, outcomes,
and geography are still very much unknown. On
Monday,
October 19 from 1:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m. ET, KFF will hold a webinar on the outlook for the U.S. health system in
light of the COVID-19 pandemic. The event will explore what we know so far
about the pandemic’s effect on costs, such as individual market premiums, and
how recent changes in utilization, including expanded use of telemedicine and
mail-order prescription services, may shape long-term trends. The panel will
also address what the pandemic may mean for health outcomes broadly,
especially as many patients have delayed or foregone routine and preventive
care. Cynthia
Cox, vice
president and director for the Program on the ACA at KFF, will moderate, and Jay Want,
executive director of the Peterson Center on Healthcare, will offer closing
remarks. The
panel will include:
The
event is open to the public, and will include time for audience
Q&A. The
webinar will draw on recent data and analysis available on the Peterson-KFF Health System Tracker, an online
information hub supported by the Peterson Center on Healthcare that’s dedicated to
monitoring and assessing the performance of the U.S. health system. Filling
the need for trusted information on national health issues, KFF (Kaiser Family Foundation)
is a nonprofit organization based in San Francisco, California. |
