SUMMARY:Financialization in Healthcare: How Wall Street Payouts Threaten Our Health
DESCRIPTION:How has the doctrine of maximizing short-term shareholder profits—part of the growing influence of financial actors and strategies termed financialization—come at the expense of patients and public health in the U.S.? \nJoin us on February 24 for a discussion of new research on the trillions of dollars extracted from the healthcare system through financial engineering practices like stock buybacks\, how this falls into a broader pattern of publicly traded companies prioritizing short-term shareholder payouts above all else\, and the impact of these practices on workers\, patients\, and innovation. \nDon’t miss the chance to hear from experts in health policy and political economy about how healthcare corporations are increasingly serving Wall Street\, with devastating implications for our healthcare system and patients\, and what we can do about it. \nSpeakers: \n\nVictor Roy\, Assistant Professor of Family Medicine and Community Health\, University of Pennsylvania; Director\, Health and Political Economy Project\nDonald Berwick\, MD\, MPP\, Lecturer of Health Care Policy\, Department of Health Care Policy\, Harvard Medical School; President Emeritus and Senior Fellow\, Institute for Healthcare Improvement; Former Administrator\, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services\nLenore Palladino\, Associate Professor of Economics & Public Policy\, University of Massachusetts Amherst\nModerated by Natalia Renta\, Associate Director\, Corporate Governance and Power\, Americans for Financial Reform Education Fund\n\nRegister Now\n  \n\nThis event is co-sponsored by Americans for Financial Reform Education Fund (AFREF) and the Health and Political Economy Project (HPEP) at The New School’s Institute on Race\, Power and Political Economy.
