Illinois is frequently regarded as a stronghold for promoting and enhancing health care access. The state’s commitment to fostering health care access is evident through progressive initiatives and legislation, creating a secure environment for diverse populations. This commitment extends to immigrants, women’s reproductive health, LGBTQ+ affirming care, and equitable care for diverse communities. Despite these efforts, the ongoing economic instability and the phasing out of various COVID-19 emergency relief funding sources pose challenges for the state and the health care ecosystem as they chart a course ahead.
In this installment of the HC3 Podcast, HC3 collaborated with Nixon Peabody LLP for a live discussion recorded on January 25 addressing the Future of Health In Illinois.
