SUMMARY:The Steward Crisis and the Future of Health Care in Massachusetts
DESCRIPTION:The Steward Crisis and the Future of Health Care in Massachusetts\nThe ongoing collapse of the Steward Health Care system came as a shock to many\, with workers and patients stuck in limbo. However\, this crisis is the culmination of longstanding forces and trends in the health care system in Massachusetts\, in which financial extraction has increasingly taken precedence over the provision of care. \nHow did we get here\, and\, just as importantly\, how do we chart a path out? \nModerator: Enid Eckstein\, JP Progressives\n\nPanelists: \nPaul Hattis\, Senior Fellow\, Lown Institute\nKatie Murphy\, President\, Massachusetts Nurses Association\nAlan Sager\, Professor\, BU School of Public Health\, Director of Health Reform Program\nBill Walczak\, Founder\, Codman Square Health Center\, 42-year health care exec\, Dorchester activist\nCo-sponsored by Mass-Care
