Marquette Benefits and Social Welfare Law Review
Healthism can identify situations where a person is subject to a particular form of bigotry based on their individual health status.

This Essay analyzes these issues as they relate to health insurance, Medicare, and the potential role of the Independent Payment Advisory Board.
