New August Issue
This month’s issue of Health Affairs features original research about state-level health care spending, payment rates for dialysis, Medicaid waivers, the health care workforce, global health systems, social determinants of health, and more.
In particular, a number of articles cover the topic of temporary licenses.
The paper by Nguyen and coauthors inspired a number of perspective pieces about licensure programs as well.
In related Perspectives, Brendan Carr and Nicholas Gavin note that New Jersey’s temporary licensure program reveals a need to consider surge capacity, to have a broadened understanding of access, and to maintain local care
priorities.
This week in Forefront, authors cover topics like pediatric "off-label" medications, Georgia's response to the 1332 waiver suspension, and Long COVID research.
Rachel Levine and colleagues at the Department of Health and Human Services and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration issue a call to action on Long COVID research as part of a National Research Action Plan on Long COVID.
With your support we can
continue to offer communitywide access to the industry-leading perspectives featured every day on Forefront.
