US LAW Class: Instructions: “With specific reference to the assigned readings in Shi and Longest, guest speakers and in-class sessions, discuss a news story on a health policy issue that involves developing legislation and the role of interest groups in doing so.
Your reflection should be 1 – 2 pages double spaced.”
Please see the paper details above. I have attached the readings from the textbook Shi, the textbook Longest is: B. Longest, Health Policymaking in the United States, 6th ed., Health Association Press, 2016
The health policy issue that I would like written about is Health Technology, specifically, Telehealth.
This is something I found on the internet that that may be helpful to know as background information:
“Health Technology
Theres been a digital transformation in healthcare over the last decade as the development and adoption of electronic health records (EHRs), mobile health devices, application programming interfaces (APIs), machine learning, and other digital health technologies have proliferated. Consumerism has fueled much of this growth, while the federal government has crafted policies to support implementation.
To meet the urgent needs for remote care amid the pandemic, federal regulators and payers enacted temporary flexibilities to facilitate access to telehealth and digital technologies. Now that stakeholders have experienced the benefits, the question has become whether governments and payers will continue to support these solutions beyond COVID-19.
With the recent establishment of the FDAs Digital Health Center of Excellence a new initiative to support and regulate digital health products it appears the government will continue to play a major role in shaping the trajectory of health technology beyond the 2020 election.”
