This year’s symposium theme is “Affordable Care Act: Retrospect and Future of US Healthcare.” A number of “distinguished” guests will discuss the future of Obamacare in the U.S., and what that future holds for health care in New York state, according to a Binghamton University news release. Eight symposium sessions (including a luncheon) feature health-care professionals, hospital administrators, insurance company executives, public officials, representatives from nonprofit organizations, and private citizens as speakers.
Opioid addiction and addiction treatment is another prominent topic in today’s health-care landscape that will be featured, as a number of officials will discuss different treatment options and ideas, as well as the cost of addiction treatment, per the release. There will also be a session on health care for senior citizens and children, as well as a session on private health-care insurance and information systems.
Registration is $50, and includes lunch. For Binghamton University faculty, staff, and graduate students, the cost is $20. To register, email Manas Chatterji at mchatter@binghamton.edu. It’s also possible to register the day of the event, starting at 8:30 a.m.
