Exploring Access to Quality Health Care

Michiganders will either lose access or will need to re-enroll. During this virtual briefing, you’ll hear from national, state and community leaders as they offer updates to the process, overview barriers to access, share how Michigan compares to other states and brainstorm the role that philanthropy can play to ensure access to quality health care. We’ll also take time to discuss health priority areas among funders. Join us!
