The Aspen Institute – Building a Healthier Nation

About This Video

Streamed live on Jun 26, 2014. There’s much more to health politics than the Affordable Care Act. Along with remarkable new advances in medicine by 2024, we will see Baby Boomers swamping the health care system, more veterans needing services, and the the impact of climate change becoming ever more apparent. Leaders from both political parties in both houses of Congress should be shaping the vision, negotiating the legislation and committing the funding to improve the nation’s health. What can Congress do to promote better health for more Americans? How can our elected officials reach consensus? Featuring Thomas Daschle, Mickey Edwards, William Frist, and Julie Rovner (moderator).
