  • Summary

  • In this episode of A Shot in the Arm podcast, Ben Plumley discusses an ongoing potentially highly significant legal challenge to the Affordable Care Act with Eric Waskowicz, Senior Policy Manager at the United States of Care. The case involves a small group of employers in Texas seeking to eliminate mandates for free preventative services, positing both constitutional issues and religious objections. Eric explains the potential widespread impacts on access to healthcare if the Supreme Court rules against the ACA provisions. He emphasizes the importance of no-cost preventative services and the economic and social benefits of maintaining them. The conversation also highlights continued bipartisan support - even from the Trump administration - for these measures and the role of state-level advocacy in preserving access to comprehensive healthcare. 00:00 Introduction to the Podcast 00:17 The Curious Case of Legal Action in the US 01:04 Introducing Eric Kovi and United States of Care 04:49 Background on the Affordable Care Act and Preventive Services 06:46 The Impact of the Supreme Court Case 15:39 Mobilizing Support and Advocacy 22:49 Eric Kovi's Career Journey 27:22 Call to Action and Conclusion 💬 Join the Conversation How do you see the future of global health unfolding?
