National Academy for State Health Policy (NASHP)
NASHP's flagship annual conference convenes 1,000+ state health-policy leaders from all 50 states and DC — Medicaid directors, state legislators, insurance regulators, and agency staff — on the most timely issues in coverage, costs, behavioral health, workforce, and primary care. Early-bird registration deadline August 21, 2026.
This is the premier convening of the state officials who set FQHC reimbursement, scope-of-practice, and coverage policy — the national counterpart to our per-state intelligence layer. As the December 31, 2026 federal triple cliff, the January 1, 2027 Medicaid work requirement, and stark state-by-state divergence (NY/NJ/VA backfilling vs. states that won't) dominate FQHC strategy, NASHP is where peer-state responses get debated. High-value for PCA policy staff and multi-state FQHC executives tracking the forward look.
California's DHCS, Covered California, and HCAI leaders are perennial NASHP participants; for CA FQHCs the value is seeing how peer states are responding to the same federal cliffs — and how CalAIM and the MCO-tax model are perceived nationally.
