KFF Health News' 'What the Health?': Live From Aspen: Health and the 2024 Elections

June 21, 2024

Health policy may not be the top issue in this year’s presidential and congressional elections, but it’s likely to play a key role.

Meanwhile, some critical health care issues, such as those involving Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act, are unlikely to get discussed much, even though the party in power after the elections would control the future of those programs. This week, in an episode taped before a live audience at the Aspen Ideas: Health festival in Aspen, Colorado, Margot Sanger-Katz of The New York Times and Sandhya Raman of CQ Roll Call join KFF Health News’ Julie Rovner to discuss these issues and more.
