From Policy to Practice: What HR1 Means for Your Future in Healthcare

As part of the California Black Health Network’s (CBHN) Health Equity Summit, “The Urgency of Now,” we invite medical school and allied health students to a special fireside chat with Dr. Reginald Jones, a nationally recognized trauma surgeon and health equity advocate.

This conversation will explore how HR1 (One Big Beautiful Bill Act), the recent landmark healthcare legislation, will shape the future of the healthcare workforce and what it means for future physicians and allied health professionals preparing to enter the field. Dr. Jones will share insights from his journey as a trauma surgeon, the evolving demands of practicing medicine in underserved communities, and the ways policy decisions translate into real-world challenges and opportunities for healthcare professionals.
