It’s About Florida: Affordable Care Act Healthcare

WFSU

Even though the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act, Florida Governor Rick Scott says the state will not follow through with optional portions of the law. So what is the future of healthcare in Florida? And how will it affect Floridians with and without insurance coverage? We’ve assembled a panel of experts who’ve been tracking the law very closely to help breakdown what the ruling means for the Sunshine State.

Host: Trimmel Gomes
Guests: Dr. Marshall Kapp, Director of the Center for Innovative Collaboration of Medicine and Law at Florida State University. Ann Swerlick, Deputy Director for Advocacy at Florida Legal Services.
