Michigan Health Policy Forum
A Non-Partisan Venue to Discuss Health Policy
Hosted by Michigan State University
The Fall 2025 Michigan Health Policy Forum will be held on October 20, 2025, from 1:00 p.m. until 3:30 p.m. at Lansing Community College’s West Campus, 5708 Cornerstone Drive, Lansing, MI 48917.
Dr. Leonard Fleck, from MSU’s College of Human Medicine’s Center for Bioethics and Social Justice, will provide a presentation titled, “Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Justice: Reflecting on the Ethical Implications of the Big, Beautiful Bill”. Dr. Fleck’s presentation will focus on what policy makers, funders, system managers, providers and clinicians should keep in mind as they revise or implement policies and practices to address the service funding and eligibility challenges resulting from implementation of the Big, Beautiful Bill Act/H.R.1.
Dr. Fleck’s presentation will be followed by a panel discussion where presenters will talk about how their organizations are engaging and preparing for addressing the coming impact of the Act. The afternoon’s presentation and discussion should provide a framework for conducting that work in an ethical, equitable and thoughtful way that considers the needs of the individuals the organization serves, their staff members and the broader community.
Please note that attendance at the Fall Forum will be in-person only. Attendance will be limited and there will be no concurrent live-streaming of the event. There is no cost to attend.
We hope you will be able to join us on October 20th. If you have any questions, please contact us at mhpf@msu.edu.
