Hot Issues in Health to Explore Critical Health Issues, Reveal New Data
More than 200 health leaders will gather to explore the issues critical to Colorado’s health care future on December 1 at the Colorado Health Institute’s Hot Issues in Health conference. The annual event will bring together community health advocates, policymakers, nonprofit organizations, providers, insurers, academics, and other problem-solvers from across the state to share ideas and advance the issues that will drive health policy in 2024.
Media are invited to attend the conference, which will also be streamed online and available in both English and Spanish.
The program will include:
- A presentation by ethicist and legal scholar Nita Farahany, who will explore the impact of artificial intelligence on how we work and think
- A sneak preview of findings from the 2023 Colorado Health Access Survey, including Colorado’s uninsured rate and new data on climate change and health
- A panel of youth who will address social media and its impact on mental health
- CHI’s perennially popular legislative preview, followed by a panel of state legislators who will discuss their expectations for the session
- And much more
