The conservative Millennial Policy Center in Denver is planning a forum next week to discuss how Obamacare might best be repealed and replaced from the view of conservative healthcare reform fellows.

“Our initiative will tackle the barriers to affordable, consumer-driven healthcare. We will develop and share practical, comprehensive solutions to revitalize healthcare for all Americans – and finally make the math work for millennials,” Jimmy Sengenberger, the policy center’s president, said in an announcement.

Sengenberger will moderate the panel of think tank fellows Dr. Michael Parra, M.D., Juliana Darrow and Charlie Katebi.

Parra practiced medicine for more than 20 years in Colorado and is the vice chairman of the Colorado Hispanic Republicans.

Darrow, also a fellow with conservative American Action Forum, is a former research coordinator at The Children’s Hospital of Colorado.

Katebi is a healthcare policy analyst who serves with or advises a number of conservative think tanks in the West, including for the Millennial Policy Center.

The event, which is free, starts at 6:30 p.m. on the second floor of 3443 S. Galena St. in Denver. The panel discussion will start promptly at 7 p.m. followed by a dessert reception.

Sengenberger, 26, released a statement Tuesday evening about the plan the Trump administration unveiled. 

“Perhaps no generation understands better than millennials that no one is a better steward of a patient’s healthcare than patients themselves. Unfortunately, under the Affordable Care Act, individual stewardship has been strangled by burdensome regulations and rising costs.  The nation’s healthcare system must be revitalized not only by repealing Obamacare, but by replacing it with an effective, vibrant solution that is patient-centered and consumer-driven. 

“Any replacement must start by boosting individual choice, increasing insurance competition, slashing onerous regulations, and eliminating cumbersome taxes on businesses and individuals.  The House Republican proposal released this evening is a good start on the road to achieving quality, affordable, and accessible healthcare.  Our healthcare policy team looks forward to examining the legislation more closely and sharing our thoughts on how Congress can best address the challenges facing our nation’s healthcare system for the benefit of all generations.”
