Pennsylvania Just Triggered a 50-Year-Old Law to Keep Jefferson Health In-Network

The Jefferson Health insurance fight got a new development this week — and a new deadline that matters more than the one everyone is watching. Pennsylvania’s insurance department announced it will invoke Act 94, a 1975 consumer protection law, if Independence Blue Cross and Highmark don’t reach new contracts with Jefferson Health by December 31. The law gives the state power to freeze a termination for up to six months and force the parties into a formal process. It has only been used twice in its entire history. — Pennsylvania Insurance Department (Philadelphia Inquirer, November 6, 2026)

We’re Growing Up Later, Living Longer — So What’s Up Now, Doc?

Understanding the changing boundaries between pediatricians, general practitioners, and geriatricians in a shifting medical world. Pediatrician Alexis Lieberman recently got a request for help from a former patient. The 23-year-old needed a physical for her new job. Lieberman obliged. Though she typically sees patients up to the age of 21, she says their shift to a primary, adult-care physician isn’t always seamless. While other pediatric practices draw the line at age 18, she’s flexible with patients who have a tough time with the transition.

Amid Measles Surge, Amish Country Opens Up to Vaccines

(This content was created with the help of AI.) Pennsylvania's largest Amish community has become ground zero for the country's worst measles surge in decades—and it's quietly shifting some minds on vaccines. The AP reports Lancaster County accounts for more than a third of the state's 1,350-plus measles cases this year, with at least three related deaths there. Though the Amish and conservative Mennonites often live apart from mainstream civic life, they shop, work, and attend school alongside their "English" neighbors, making it impossible to contain the highly contagious virus within their ...

As a Historic Measles Outbreak Hits Pennsylvania Amish Country, More Show Openness to Vaccines

EPHRATA, Pa. (AP) — Amish and Mennonite shoppers in conservative dress mingled with shoppers from the wider public on a recent Friday at a vast outdoor market here, where vendors sold colorful pumpkins and mums, fry pies and squash, sports jerseys and Barbie accessories. Such interactions are common in Lancaster County, home to the largest Amish population in the U.S. — and the epicenter of the nation’s worst measles outbreak in 35 years. While they avoid many types of civic engagement for religious reasons, the Amish — like many other groups vulnerable to measles across the nation — are not truly separate. “We are all interconnected,” said Dr. Diego Hijano of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Robust vaccination rates once protected Americans much better. But rates among the general public are now falling , and rates have long been low among the Amish, creating the perfect conditions for the contagious virus — officially considered “eliminated” from the U.S. since 2000 — to spread here and beyond. Pennsylvania has the most U.S. cases, with over 1,350 this year, more than a third in Lancaster County alone , according to state figures.
