Navigating HR 1 (One Big Beautiful Bill Act): Challenges and Opportunities across the Healthcare Sector

Presented by NYU Wagner.

According to preliminary analysis from the Congressional Budget Office, H.R.1 will reduce federal healthcare spending by approximately $1.15 trillion over the next decade but also will increase the number of uninsured individuals by 11.8 million by 2034. As this legislation takes effect, leaders across hospitals, behavioral health organizations, FQHCs, health insurers and other health sectors are navigating new challenges and opportunities. Our expert panelists will delve into how HR 1 is shaping strategic decision-making, operations, workforce, patient care delivery and the future of US healthcare. This is an essential conversation for any healthcare leader seeking to understand and adapt to the evolving regulatory environment.
