KHN’s ‘What The Health?’: SCOTUS Punts On ACA Case — For Now

January 23, 2020 KFF Health News Original

The Supreme Court said it won’t hear an expedited case that threatens to overturn the Affordable Care Act.

Also, for extra credit, the panelists suggest their favorite health policy stories of the week they think you should read, too.
