Title: Topics in Policy Analysis (Half-Term): The Politics of US Healthcare Reform (Sess I)
Description: This course explores the fundamentals of health policy and current, real-time politics, focusing on access, cost, quality, and reform, both from a historical context and from perspective of proposals made by likely presidential nominees. The study of institutions (Medicare, Medicaid, private health insurance) will be placed in context of what government and the private sector does, and should do, to face gaps and inefficiencies that exist today. Course will include two case studies: state reform and federal legislation (Medicare, SCHIP, or health disparities).
