Supreme Court Makes Health Policy
Episode Description
The Supreme Court handed down its last decisions of its 2025-26 term this week, including in an immigration case that could result in the loss of hundreds of thousands of workers in nursing homes and other long-term care facilities.
Alice Miranda Ollstein of Politico, Lizzy Lawrence of Stat, and Amanda Seitz of KFF Health News join KFF Health News’ Julie Rovner to discuss this story and more.
Plus, for “extra credit” the panelists suggest health policy stories they read this week that they think you should read, too:
Julie Rovner: Modern Healthcare’s “Carbon Health Settles ‘Corporate Practice of Medicine’ Case,” by Michael McAuliff.
Alice Miranda Ollstein: Stateline’s “Federal Health Agency Cancels Most of its Teen Pregnancy Prevention Grants,” by Kelcie Moseley-Morris.
Lizzy Lawrence: The Wall Street Journal’s “The Baby Formula Probe Produced a Pile of Evidence. Then the DOJ Dropped the Case,” by Dave Michaels, Sadie Gurman, and Liz Essley Whyte.
Amanda Seitz: ProPublica’s “‘Digital Colonialism’: U.S. Demands to Access Africans’ Data Raise Privacy, Sovereignty Concerns,” by Sharon Lerner and Anna Maria Barry-Jester.
