Upcoming Immigrant Health Changes, Challenges & Options

Thursday, August 6, 1:00 – 2:30 PM Pacific

Presented by Northwest Health Law Advocates

Healthcare costs top the list of domestic concerns in the US with more people (61%) worrying “a great deal” about medical costs in 15 other policy areas.  That anxiety is even higher here where last autumn 8 in 10 Washingtonians surveyed worry about affording health care in the future, 7 in 20 believe the health care system is unaffordable and 2 in 3 delayed or went without health care due to cost in the year. 
 
Last year, Congress passed HR 1 which will add more barriers to Apple Health for over 600,000 Washingtonians.  Join us to get the latest updates about these changes and programs that help Washingtonians afford medical care such as Charity Care, Free Clinics, and Cascade Care Savings. 

Learn about potential policy solutions and actions you can take to improve affordability for health care in WA!
