Fifty Years of Fighting: Medicare, Medicaid, and the Transformation of American Health Care

Emily Friedman, Health Policy and Ethics Analyst, Chicago

The bill that became law on July 30, 1965, was the culmination of decades of effort on the part of people ranging from advocates for the elderly to hospital representatives to U.S. presidents. The story of how Medicare and Medicaid came to be and what they have and have not accomplished is a story that needs to be told so that we can understand how far we have come and address what still needs to be done. This breakfast is brought to you by ARAMARK, CyraCom, and the Institute for Diversity in Health Management.
