Professor Terry to Moderate May 11 Webinar on Pandemic Recovery for Vulnerable Populations
05/10/2021
The Network for Public Health Law will present a webinar, “Equitable Rebuilding from COVID-19: Ensuring Quality Care for Vulnerable Populations” moderated by Hall Render Professor of Law Nicolas Terry.
Professor Terry is an expert on law and policy issues surrounding opioid use disorder (OUD), which impacts populations that also face disparities in COVID-19 burden and risk.
The webinar will include a discussion of recent changes to increase access to OUD treatment in response to the pandemic, and recommendations for permanently reducing legislative and regulatory barriers to effective, evidence-based interventions for OUD, as well as insight into how law and policy can support access to mental health care and promote well-being during and after the pandemic.
Professor Terry is Executive Director of the Hall Center for Law and Health at IU McKinney, where he teaches healthcare and health policy courses. He is one of the permanent bloggers at the Bill of Health blog, a host of “The Week in Health Law” podcast at TWIHL.com, and @nicolasterry on twitter.
