In 2016, in partnership with the Physicians Foundation, Health Affairs
launched the Practice of Medicine
article
series focusing on important health policy issues affecting physicians.
The effort has produced a comprehensive collection of policy research in
the field.
On Thursday, September 22, Health Affairs Editor-in-Chief Alan Weil will
host an online forum examining "Physician Burnout, Workforce Strain, and
Lessons from COVID-19," focusing on recent work featured in the Practice
of Medicine series and broader issues confronting medical professionals.
The event will take place just a week after National Physician Suicide
Awareness Day (September 17).

Coming In October:
Disability And Health
More than thirty years after the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
was signed into law, people with disabilities continue to face
inequities in the health care system with respect to access and
outcomes. Disparities in education, employment, housing, and
transportation are also barriers to achieving health equity.
The October 2022 issue of Health Affairs provides a comprehensive,
scholarly look at the relationship between disability and health. We
expect it to help shape the agenda for research and policy for many
years to come.
You are invited to join us for a month full of events highlighting this
important work. Please save the date for the events below, and stay
tuned for additional announcements about our programming.
