Julie Rovner is chief Washington correspondent and host of KFF Health News’ weekly well being coverage information podcast, “What the Health?” A famous knowledgeable on well being coverage points, Julie is the creator of the critically praised reference e book “Health Care Politics and Policy A to Z,” now in its third version.

June means it’s time for the Supreme Court to render rulings on the most important and most controversial circumstances of the time period. This 12 months, the courtroom has two vital abortion-related circumstances: one involving the abortion tablet mifepristone and the opposite concerning the battle between a federal emergency care legislation and Idaho’s near-total abortion ban.

Also awaiting decision is a case that would dramatically change how the federal authorities makes well being care (and all different sorts of) insurance policies by doubtlessly limiting businesses’ authority in deciphering the main points of legal guidelines by laws. Rules stemming from the Affordable Care Act and different laws may very well be affected.

In this particular episode of “What the Health?”, Laurie Sobel, an affiliate director for girls’s well being coverage at KFF, joins host Julie Rovner for a refresher on the circumstances, and a preview of how the justices would possibly rule on them.
