Thursday, March 3, 2022 | The Latest Research, Commentary, And News From
Health Affairs
Dear John,
Health Affairs is seeking an Editor-in-Chief
to help develop and launch a new journal - Health Affairs Scholar.
Funders Address Racism And Health
In the February 2022 GrantWatch column, Lee-Lee Prina writes about
foundations' efforts to address the effects of racism on health
.
Prina discusses several examples of funding by foundations around the
US, including the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's Evidence for Action:
Innovative Research to Advance Racial Equity national program and the
Commonwealth Fund's $15 million Health Equity Action Fund.
This will be the final column written by Lee-Lee Prina -- long the voice
and dedicated editor behind Health Affairs' regular GrantWatch section
- who retires this week.
During her more than thirty years on this beat, Lee-Lee expanded
GrantWatch from a journal-only feature, adding commentary and analyses
from grantmakers on Health Affairs Blog -- now Health Affairs Forefront
.
As expressed in a recent Health Affairs Forefront article
,
thank you, Lee-Lee, for your contributions to our community.
Elsewhere At Health Affairs
Today in Health Affairs Forefront, David Kindig and John Mullahy ask,
what is the balance of investments in the determinants of health
that will minimize health inequities?
Dora Lynn Hughes of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)
discusses the CMS Innovation Center's new initiative
to
advance health equity.
Elevating Voices: Women's History Month: In the June 2021 issue of
Health Affairs, Sara Edmond describes her experience testing positive
for COVID-19
one
day before a scheduled cesarean delivery and facing judgment and
questioning of her behavior by hospital staff.
As a clinical health psychologist specializing in patient-provider
communication, Edmond explains, "Shame-induced stigma is an ineffective
tool for motivating behavior change and does not encourage future risk
reduction, and most health care providers should know this."
Listen to Edmond read her essay on our Narrative Matters podcast
