Health Affairs has been
ramping up its podcast efforts since 2020. Be sure not to miss an episode and check out our suite of podcasts.
Here are some recent episodes that made a splash with our audience.
Fresh off the press today, Tom Insel joins Kathleen Haddad on
Health Affairs This Week to have a timely and poignant discussion on the latest on behavioral health care policies.
Also on A Health Podyssey, Editor-in-Chief Alan Weil interviews Andrew Anderson, a member of the Health Equity Fellowship for Trainees program at Health Affairs, on his paper assessing financial costs
associated with disparities in preventable heart failure hospitalizations among Medicare beneficiaries in the US South.
Back to Health Affairs This Week, Leslie Erdelack and Michael Gerber discuss the newly announced merger between
Kaiser Permanente and Geisinger Health System, the evolution of value-based care, how mergers may impact patient outcomes and health spending, and how health economists are reacting to the news.
Finally, be sure to check out the Health Affairs Pathways series which explores the avenues and alleyways of the health care system through a variety of storytelling – from investigative journalism and health policy
explainers to long-form interviews.
Today in Forefront, David Cullen and colleagues contribute to our Provider Prices in the Commercial Sector series (supported by Arnold Ventures) with an article comparing Elevance Health claims data to newly mandated pricing data
from the same insurer.
Health Affairs is launching a contest! The premise is simple. Finish the statement “You’re A Health Policy Wonk If…"
We'll share some of the submissions on Forefront in July, and the first-place winner of the contest will receive a Health Affairs tumbler and a free Unlimited membership for a year. Submit by May 31.
