Friday, February 11, 2022 | The Latest Research, Commentary, And News
From Health Affairs

Dear John,

Earlier this week, Health Affairs published its theme issue on racism
and health , which
includes the latest scholarship on the topic.

Beyond this particular journal issue, Health Affairs is committed to
publishing articles and research that address the impact of racism on
health. Editor-In-Chief Alan Weil shares his observations

on creating a more equitable publishing environment.

Leading To Health

A new Leading To Health

column highlights a sweeping initiative, United Against Racism, designed
to make the Mass General Brigham health system an explicitly antiracist
institution.

Mass General Brigham is the largest health system in Massachusetts and
the state's largest employer, encompassing more than a dozen hospitals
and more than 75,000 employees, including thousands of doctors.

"United Against Racism begins from the premise that racism is deeply
embedded in health care and moves directly to the daunting task of
fixing the problem," explains author Heather Tirado Gillian.

At the plan's core are three goals: improving health equity for
current patients, improving health in the communities Mass General
Brigham serves, and creating workforce equity.

Today in Health Affairs Forefront, Clare Rock and Nam Tran discuss the
low-cost, high-throughput, laboratory-based COVID-19 antigen tests

and the role that this technology could play in the safe resumption of
normal activities.

Krishna Juluru and coauthors describe a home COVID-19 testing pilot
program which demonstrates that it is possible to establish an
electronic pathway for self-test result reporting

to public health authorities.

In GrantWatch, the Pediatrics Supporting Parents initiative
,
a group of six national foundations, aims to help transform pediatric
care to better support young children's social and emotional
development. The initiative centers on Black, Indigenous, and People of
Color families, writes India Alarcon and coauthors.
