1:30-2:30 PM-Healthcare on the Line:  Understanding Legislative Shifts in Medicaid, Medicare and Healthcare Policy-Sweeping federal policy changes are poised to reshape the healthcare landscape, with significant implications for providers, hospitals, and patients alike.  Key proposals include deep cuts to Medicaid funding, stricter eligibility requirements, reduced support for low-income Medicare beneficiaries, and decreased subsidies and enrollment changes for those relying on ACA Health Exchanges.  These developments present serious challenges to an already strained healthcare system.  This presentation will offer essential context, outline what changes are on the horizon, and explore how they may affect both our members and the patients we serve. 3:00-4:15 PM-Labor Speaker 4:15-5:30 PM-Bargaining Unit Reports
