Securing Health Rights for Those in Need
关于我们
Founded in 1969, the National Health Law Program protects and advances the health rights of low income and underserved individuals. NHeLP advocates, educates and litigates at the federal and state level. Our lawyers and policy analysts stand up for the rights of the millions of people who struggle to access affordable, quality health care. We are guided by the belief—a challenge—that each generation should live better than the last. Health care reform offers the opportunity to substantially reduce the number of uninsured and improve access to care, including through the law’s expansion of the Medicaid program. Political and economic challenges, however, threaten these advances for millions of low-income and uninsured people. NHeLP defends the nation’s health care safety net for those most in need and those with the fewest resources. We fight to give at-risk populations a voice in federal policy making, promote the rights of consumers in emerging managed-care systems, and advocate for creative solutions that preserve the government’s responsibility as the provider of last resort. We are a force in the courtroom, working to ensure that low-income people and underserved communities can obtain the quality care to which they are legally entitled and holding state and federal Medicaid agencies accountable for their programs. The National Health Law Program, founded in 1969, protects and advances health rights of low-income and underserved individuals and families. We advocate, educate and litigate at the federal and state levels to advance health and civil rights in the U.S. Our lawyers and policy experts fight every day for the rights of the tens of millions of people struggling to access affordable, quality health care coverage free from discrimination. The National Health Law Program defends and fights to expand health and civil rights of those most in need and those with the fewest resources. We strive to give a voice to low-income individuals and famil

State regulations on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) by insurers are not keeping pace with advancements in technology, particularly in the health insurance sector, according to consumer representatives to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC). However, Wayne Turner, senior attorney with the National Health Law Program and an NAIC consumer representative, cautioned that the technology also introduces potential harms. “AI is being used effectively in many cases, but it’s also causing harm, particularly in the health insurance space,” Turner said in a report from AM Best, emphasizing the distinct challenges in this sector compared to life or property/casualty insurance. Features like prior authorization and step therapy, Turner noted, add complexity to how AI is applied. https://lnkd.in/eDA8ARDf

This webinar trains advocates how to navigate, analyze, and comment on 1915(c) waivers, the most common form of Medicaid HCBS programs. States must regularly renew and amend 1915(c) waivers, and give stakeholders the opportunity to provide input and suggest changes. Our expert presenters shared our recently published commenters' guide to 1915(c) waivers, which is designed to break down these long and sometimes confusing applications. This resource can help advocates and waiver participants to influence and improve access to care, accountability, and transparency in how their HCBS programs are run by understanding the long and sometimes confusing application. By Elizabeth Edwards and David Machledt. https://lnkd.in/eWJVzPks
