Health Policy & Management: In Conversation with the Yale School of Public Health Department Chair

Описание: "Spending on health care in the United States is 19% of GDP," says Jason Hockenberry, Chair of the Department of Health Policy and Management at the Yale School of Public Health. "It is the largest industry by far. Studying health care management and being involved in trying to improve the delivery of health care in the U.S. is both a noble and a practical endeavor."

Research in Health Policy and Management is key to the advancement of the health of the public. The impact of Yale School of Public Health research on evidence-based policymaking related to the delivery of health care and improving public health has been felt in government, not-for-profit, for-profit, and research organizations across the country and around the world.

In this video, Hockenberry discusses the work and impact of the Health Policy and Management Department, including providing legislative research support to Connecticut's legislature, and improving policies around Medicaid, billing for hospital care, delivery of mental health and substance use services, tobacco and electronic cigarettes, and vaccines and other COVID-19 prevention measures.

"If we’re talking about real-world impact, we have faculty that are doing work that’s changing lives day by day," he says.
