Wednesday, April 1, 2015, 8:00 AM ­ 12:00 PM Wasserstein Hall, Milstein East B
Harvard Law School, 1585 Massachusetts Ave., Cambridge, MA This Term, in King v. Burwell, the Supreme Court will consider wheth
the Affordable Care Act permits the government to extend tax­cred
subsidies to citizens of states that have chosen not to establish their own insuranc
exchange. If the Court rules that these subsidies are not permitted under the law, the fallo
will be extensive and possibly devastating to state insurance markets, and countless loca
state, and federal actors will have to decide how to move forward. This event will brin
together scholars and practitioners in the fields of law, public health, an
economics to evaluate the oral argument in the case and consider how the Court is likely rule before exploring the likely impacts of a decision against the government and fina
beginning to build groundwork for politically­viable fixes at all levels of public and priva
