Course Catalog Description
This course serves as an introduction to key topics in health policy making in the United States, with a focus on the policy process and policy analysis methods. Using the policy analysis framework of Eugene Bardach’s Eightfold Path first introduced in PBHLTH W200E, the course will explore the entire policy analysis process from the identification of a problem, to the evaluation of policy solutions, and finally to the techniques and formats for effective health policy communications. This analysis method is contextualized within the process of public policy making within the U.S. government.
