Public health and health care delivery may seem to go hand in hand to the public they exist to serve. But partnerships for the public good often are complicated by a patchwork of elaborate administrative practices, ownership, funding models, and other systemic barriers resulting in less effective results despite a shared mission of serving healthy, thriving communities.
Knocking down the silos to collaborative health systems that drive improved outcomes is vital to addressing our most pressing public health issues. Join us to learn from experts whose solutions-oriented approaches on critical public health issues have shown how innovation and disruption, particularly in times of crisis, can radically shift how communities can access care.
Jointly produced by the Common Health Coalition and the National Press Club Journalism Institute, the conversation will highlight research on high-impact public health and care delivery system partnerships while addressing the core components of their success. Expect a robust discussion on practical aspects of these important collaborations.
Participants may submit questions in advance of the session by emailing institute@press.org. The featured initiatives were published in a special themed issue of NEJM Catalyst, guest edited by Dr. Nicholas Stine. The edition includes articles, case studies, and research reports on coordination across public health and care delivery, COVID 19 response, tuberculosis screening, the 2022 mpox outbreak, pediatric asthma intervention, abortion and reproductive health care, and public health data.
