twihl 5x5This week’s guest on TWIHL is Ann Marie Marciarille, a professor of law at the University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC) Law School. We discuss a brand range of topics, including the post-NFIB Medicaid “gamble,” the concept of the cost-shifting hydraulic, our less-than-rigorous mechanisms for dealing with infectious diseases, the long-tail of the Actavis case, and what happens when your inhaler stops working in the Portuguese Azores (and what that tells us about our drug distribution and pricing models).

Ann Marie has long researched and written on health care regulation and finance, with a particular interest in health care reform. Her articles on Medicaid and health care federalism are important guides to the ACA (and post-ACA) landscape of equity, access, and experimentalism in health policy.

Before joining UMKC, Ann Marie had a long career as health law attorney, including 10 years as a health care antitrust prosecutor for the California Attorney General’s office, and several years as a legal services attorney specializing in health care matters. Her ability to unify both the practitioner and scholarly perspective was evident in our discussions of topics ranging from Medicaid expansion to international drug pricing comparisons. Be sure to follow her blog, Missouri State of Mind, for more scholarship and commentary on vital topics in health law and policy.
