Ep93: When Healthcare Is Decided in the Supreme Court: w/ Katie Keith

A conversation with Katie Keith

We need to make healthcare more resilient. 

Here to guide us through the policy issues affecting modern healthcare is Katie Keith, J.D., M.P.H., director of the Health Policy and the Law Initiative at Georgetown’s O’Neill Institute for National and Global Health Law and Principal at Keith Policy Solutions.

With an impressive resume that includes a stint at the White House under the Biden administration, Katy is an expert on federal and state healthcare priorities, with a focus on the ACA and underserved populations.

In talking us through two key Supreme Court cases, Katy demystifies a fundamental problem in American healthcare, before shining a light on what individuals and communities can do to ensure healthcare is accessible for all.

We spoke about the increasing role of courts in shaping health policy, the impact on this has on marginalized communities, the Medina vs. Planned Parenthood and Kennedy vs. Braidwood Management cases, and the importance of informed, bipartisan legislative action to make healthcare resilient against ideological and policy shifts.
