All are welcome to join BRI-Icahn and Primary Care Progress for this panel discussion presentation on transforming outpatient medicine.

Andy Coyle, MD, Asst. professor of Medicine, General Internal Medicine, and Medical Education, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai | Dr. Coyle focuses on homeless medicine

Prescription-drug prices continue to seize headlines this election season. Recent drug-pricing scandals—involving EpiPen and Daraprim, older medicines used to treat asthma and malaria, respectively, as well as high list prices for new medicines to counter hepatitis C and cholesterol—seem to offer ammunition to critics who charge that drug manufacturers prioritize profits over patients.

But how are drug prices in the U.S. actually determined? Are the forces of competition being fully harnessed to yield positive results for patients? And how is high-deductible insurance, accelerating fast under Obamacare, affecting access to critical medicines?

Please join Manhattan Institute for a health-care symposium, as distinguished experts discuss the forces driving drug pricing in America—and explore promising new approaches for making medicines more affordable for patients.

All are welcome to attend a discussion with Dr. Emilie Scott & Dr. James Gaor of Halcyon Health. What is Direct Primary Care (DPC), and how is it relevant to medical students? Dr. Scott will speak about her primary care practice, which uses the direct primary care business model. In this model, patients pay an initial enrollment fee and then a monthly fee for primary care services.We think you'll want to know about this non-traditional and expanding method of delivering quality, affordable care without insurance companies or government middlemen getting between patients and doctors.

ALL are welcome to attend BRI-SLU's first meeting of the year! Come find out about our work to preserve medical freedom for all doctors, while providing solutions to keeping healthcare affordable, accessible and of high quality for patients. We are America's only free market healthcare oriented organization specifically for medical students.

As a medical student, what are your concerns about healthcare policy? Didn't know you should be concerned? This meeting is for you!
