This text is about the process of developing health policy relevant to the United States. We have included the perspectives of a number of disciplines and professions. We have drawn heavily on our personal experiences and backgrounds, which include economics, political science, management, communications, and public health. We have also drawn on the experiences of other countries.
"Health Policy Analysis analyzes current U.S. health policy and proposes various alternatives for developing future health policy without pushing a single solution set-rather, it considers the viewpoints of economics, political science, management, communications, technology, and public health."
