Friday, February 4, 2022 | The Latest Research, Commentary, And News
From Health Affairs
Dear John,
In anticipation of our upcoming theme issue, Racism & Health, publishing
on February 7, 2022, we are giving Health Affairs Today subscribers a
sneak peek into the research and new
content accompanying the issue release.
New Resource For Authors
Alongside the Racism & Health release, Health Affairs will publish an
exclusive video interview with Harriet A.
Washington-ethicist, writer, and author of Medical Apartheid: The Dark
History of Medical Experimentation on Black Americans from Colonial
Times to the Present.
Aletha Maybank, Senior Vice President and Chief Health Equity Officer at
the American Medical Association, and Vabren Watts, Director of Equity
at Health Affairs, interviewed Washington about the history of racism in
medicine and research.
Health Affairs is also hosting events
and publishing podcasts
that enable authors and experts
to dive deeper into the February issue's research and discuss topics
surrounding how racism impacts health.
One event accompanying the launch of our theme issue is a free virtual
symposium, "Racism & Health" on Tuesday, February 8, from 2:00 p.m. -
5:00 p.m. EST. We are honored that
**Xavier Becerra**, Secretary of the US Department of Health and Human
Services, will address the group during the event.
Today in Health Affairs Forefront, David Kim and coauthors discuss how
cost-effectiveness analyses
can help determine how to best boost COVID-19 vaccinations rates.
Peter Neumann and Daniel Ollendorf argue that understanding the
cost-effectiveness of health care interventions
is critical for improving health system efficiency and optimizing
population health.
In GrantWatch, the Peterson-Kaiser Family Foundation Health System
Tracker's analyses thus far have found that the COVID-19 pandemic
resulted in significant disruptions to longstanding trends in health
outcomes
,
spending, and care.

Health Policy Research on Racism and Health
Racism is the reason for large, sustained health inequities in the
United States.
The February 2022 issue of Health Affairs-as well as related content
including a video interview, StoryMap, podcasts, and events-examines
the historical context and linkages between structural racism and health
outcomes.
The content not only focuses on the discussion of the topic with the
latest scholarship, but includes forward-looking pieces to help shape
the future research and policy agenda.
