the prioritization of vigilance, research, prevention, and proactive
strategies are necessary drivers for its success.
As psychedelic services have demonstrated their efficacy as viable
alternatives for treating conditions across the mental health spectrum
,
Varun Saraswathula and Molly Candon consider whether the current health
care system is truly equipped to safely provide these services.
Lanhee J. Chen and coauthors look ahead at market-based health care
reforms
that would benefit from directing attention away from undoing the past
and toward a vision centered on more choices within the current system.
We published new installments in the Forefront series "Accountable Care
For Population Health
."
Of these installments, topics include a social accountable care
organization (ACO) for Medicaid managed care
,
the renewed growth and improved savings
on display for Medicare ACOs in 2022, delegation of chronic care
management
in the Medicare shared savings program, and making the promise of
value-based care meaningful to consumers

To expand on one of the Narrative Matters pieces in our October issue,
Ryan J. Petteway provided greater insight
on how his poem drew on his memories and found a central balance in his
sense of love, connection, and joy for the Black communities he grew up
in.
With the national uninsured rate at a record low, Eli Y. Adashi and
coauthors focus on how we can maintain these gains and identify
opportunities for improving enrollment processes
for those currently enrolled in the Marketplace, Medicaid, and the
Children's Health Insurance Program as well as those who may qualify in
the future.

The October 2023 issue of Health Affairs focused on Tackling Structural
Racism In Health.
As an opportunity to expand upon this theme and provide greater voice to
the relationship between structural racism, health, and health care, we
celebrated the issue's release with a captivating conversation among a
panel of distinguished authors and experts.
On October 3, we held a virtual forum
where the panel presented their work and engaged in discussions on
topics including "Politics and the Legacy of Racism," "Use Of Race And
Ethnicity Data," "Documenting Racism," and "Responses to Racism."
If you were unable to attend the virtual forum, the entire event was
captured for you to explore at your convenience.
