PGU Health Policy in Brief Discussion

Health policy briefs provide succinct overviews of health policy  topics. The intended audience is policymakers, journalists, and others  concerned about improving health care in the United States. The briefs  explore arguments from varying perspectives of a policy proposal. They  guide available research behind each perspective. Health policy briefs  are created by experts in the field through funding from public and  private grants.
