President Zach Klein will moderate a panel of experts to discuss and explore the

Healthcare industry about what could be next for their organizations and the
ACA, ask questions and voice concerns of a potential repeal.
Columbus
residents could lose health coverage with the repeal of the ACA. In Franklin

period alone, 51,456 people in the Columbus designated market area have
submitted applications for coverage through the marketplace.
