Healthcare Policy in the Courts: Summer 2024 Update

July 10, 2024

This webinar was part of Foley Hoag's continuing series on federal litigation that informed, and in some cases determined, the future of healthcare policy. Our panel of healthcare legal experts discussed cases heard during the U.S. Supreme Court's October 2023 term, as well as those before other federal courts. The courts have issued or, by the end of June, were expected to issue opinions addressing:

  • Litigation defining access to reproductive health care in the wake of the Supreme Court’s landmark decision in Dobbs
  • The legality of the IRA’s Medicare Drug Price Negotiation program
  •  Challenges to the scope of the 340B program, including disputes over contract pharmacies.
  • The future of HHS rulemaking authority and the Chevron Doctrine

We also provided an initial preview of cases in the pipeline for next year.

In this recording, our attorneys explored the most pressing issues in these cases, the impacts of decisions on your business, and the potential legal questions the Courts may tackle next.
