Sunday, June 26, 2022 | The Latest Research, Commentary, And News From
Health Affairs

Dear John,

Health Affairs is publishing a theme issue on disability and health

in October 2022.

As part of Health Affairs' commitment to supporting and raising
awareness of disabilities and health, we will launch a video component,
as well as unique artwork and digital assets, alongside the research to
set the foundation of the issue.

We invite participants to submit their responses

to the proposals for video production and artwork and digital assets by
July 15.

In conjunction with this issue, the Narrative Matters section of Health
Affairs is holding a poetry contest
.
The contest is open until July 25. We are looking for well-crafted poems
that touch on topics related to disability and health, by writers with
lived experience of disability.

What's New At Health Affairs

Earlier this week, our Health Affairs Today newsletter featured a guest
essay by William Feldman of Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard
Medical School. Feldman and colleagues recently published an overview on
inhaler patents

and regulatory exclusivities in Health Affairs.

In the essay, Feldman reflects on his experinece

as a fellow in pulmonary and critical care medicine in 2017.

During his fellowship, he realized there were no generic inhalers for
asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) on the US market,
and recalls a common concern his patients had regarding the price of
inhalers.

Feldman's essay examines inhaler patents and the limited number of
generics in the market.

He considers several ideas for reform that might help, and points to two
accompanying perspectives-one by Robin Feldman

and the other by Scott Hemphill and Bhaven Sampat
-that
lay out further ideas and help put the topic into context.

Elsewhere At Health Affairs

In Health Affairs Forefront, authors write about the proposed regulatory
fix to the so-called family glitch in the Affordable Care Act (ACA).

Peter Nelson discusses how President Biden's proposed regulatory fix
to the so-called family glitch in the Affordable Care Act contravenes
the relevant statutory provisions
.

Doug Badger argues Congress alone has the institutional capacity
to
weigh the upsides and downsides of "fixing" the "family glitch" and the
constitutional authority to amend the statute.

In an episode of This Week, Health Affairs' Jessica Bylander and
Kathleen Haddad discuss the White House's executive order on LGBTQI+

equality and its impact on health care.

Currently, more than 70 percent of our content is freely available-and
we'd like to keep it that way. With your support,

we can continue to keep our digital publication Forefront
