The Public Charge Rule and the Threat to Public Health
February 20 | 1:00 – 2:30 p.m. EST (11:00 AM – 12:30 PM Arizona)
Under the Department of Homeland Security’s Public Charge Rule, U.S. immigrants who receive non-cash “public benefits,” including most forms of Medicaid, can be denied a green card because they are deemed to be a “public charge.” With the U.S. Supreme Court’s recent order allowing the Final Rule to go into effect while legal challenges make their way through the lower courts, many poor and low-income individuals will now face increased scrutiny when applying for a green card. Attend this webinar to learn about the legal aspects of the Public Charge Rule and its impact on public health.

- Leila Barraza, J.D., M.P.H., AzPHA Member & Consultant, Network for Public Health Law—Western Region Office

- April Shaw, PhD, J.D., Staff Attorney, Network for Public Health Law—Western Region Office

Crystal Watson, Senior Scholar at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, will lead the introduction, followed by a panel of experts, including:
- Robert Robbins – President, University of Arizona
- Aminta Breaux – President, Bowie State University

The central role of palliative care across all systems will be addressed and a trauma-informed perspective in working with those affected by the pandemic, as well as the critical importance of workforce education and training.
The moderator for this event will be Heather A. Hatcher, Esq., MPH, Member, New York City Bar Association Health Law and Science and Law Committees.

This webinar, coordinated by the Better Care Playbook and made possible through the Seven Foundation Collaborative, will explore opportunities for health systems and plans to work with community health workers to support high-need individuals, with a focus on addressing the long-term impacts of COVID-19. Currently this pandemic disproportionately impacts high-risk populations and communities of color, and community health workers play a valuable role in providing critical supports for people with complex health and social needs and addressing health disparities.
Featured speakers will describe the roles and value of community health workers, share implementation and sustainable financing strategies, and discuss how community health worker programs can be established and expanded to mitigate the negative effects of COVID-19 on high-risk populations.

Dying in America: Care Options at the End of Life
Learning Objectives:
1. Briefly review why dying peacefully in America is often difficult
2. Discuss the care options available at the end of life
3. Provide a more detailed review of Medical Aid in Dying
Tom Fitch, MD, went to medical school at the University of Kansas, completed a residency in Internal Medicine at the University of Michigan, and fellowships in Medical Oncology and Hematology at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.
He practiced at Mayo Clinic’s Arizona facility for 30 years, where he cared for many patients from time of diagnosis through the end of life. He became convinced that patients with advanced cancers need more open and empathetic communication about their illness and prognosis, better supportive/symptomatic care, and truthful, compassionate, and grace-filled care as they approach the end of life. For those reasons, he became a Hospice and Palliative Medicine physician.
With a wealth of first-hand experience, Dr. Fitch believes medical aid in dying (MAID) is ethical, and should be legally available—with stringent safeguards—to competent adults who find themselves near the end of life due to a terminal illness complicated by unbearable, refractory suffering to use as their last act of free will to die with dignity.
He has joined Arizona End of Life Options to advocate for Arizona to join the other ten states (plus Washington DC) to make MAID a choice in Arizona. He himself has been diagnosed with multiple myeloma and lymphoma. See Dr. Fitch’s Arizona Republic op-ed of 5/20/20: “I’m an oncologist with terminal cancer, and I support medical aid in dying. Here’s why.”
