Advocacy Forum: The DC Medicaid Situation September 29, 2021 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM

The past few weeks have been a whirlwind of arguments, actions, and accusations for the DC Medicaid program. After this week, there are legitimate questions if your practice can see Medicaid or Alliance patients, or if you will be paid by the government for treating Medicaid beneficiaries. The current uncertainty around the managed care contracts is endangering the health of residents and unsettling the healthcare community at a time of constant uncertainty.

What can you do as a DC physician? Join our townhall to learn how and make your voice heard.

Speakers:

• Moderator - E.W. Emanuel, MD; President, Medical Society of DC
• DCPCA - Patricia Quinn; Director of Policy & Eternal Affairs
• Washington Psychiatric Society- Mani Yavi, MD; Executive Committee Member
