The organized section on Health Politics and Policy provides the ideal infrastructure in which members can more thoroughly, efficiently arm themselves with the additional expertise we need to explore health politics and policy questions. The Section will define “health politics and policy” just as broadly as the phrase implies. Everything from the politics of Medicare Part D to the politics of women’s health; everything from comparative politics of AIDS in Africa, Eastern Europe, and South Asia to the comparative state politics of Medicaid and SCHIP, everything from the ethics of end of life decisions to the regulation of stem cell research, everything from public budgeting and regulation to public health disaster preparedness – all these and more fall with the scope of the Section.
2011 - 2012 Officers President:
Awards Each year’s award will recognize the best paper on any subject that fits under the rubric of health politics and policy that was presented at the previous annual APSA meeting. All papers presented at panels sponsored or cosponsored by the OSHPP are eligible for consideration, and may be nominated by panel chairs and discussants. All other substantively appropriate papers presented at panels organized by other sections, divisions, and related groups are also eligible, if the authors made an electronic version available on-line. The first Robins Award will be conferred at the OSHPP business meeting during the 2012 APSA annual meeting in New Orleans, and will recognize a paper delivered at the 2011 annual meeting. |
