At AcademyHealth’s 2024 Health Datapalooza, health care data journalist Fred Trotter interviewed several speakers and attendees, and the recordings are available on YouTube!
The interviews explore various health data topics speakers are passionate about and give a peak into their conference sessions. The recorded interviews allow patients and others who could not attend in person access to bonus Datapalooza content.
Health Datapalooza is the place where health data and policy meet. It brings together data experts, policymakers, patient advocates, and anyone who is passionate about the liberation and responsible use of health care data. These interviews are a way for the public to virtually connect with the changemakers in the landscape. See below for a list of the interviews. You can also view a comprehensive playlist of all the interviews here.
