Unanimously endorsed by AcademyHealth's Committee on Advocacy and Public Policy, the Executive Committee, and the Board of Directors in December 2022, this documents outlines AcademyHealth's advocacy priorities.
AcademyHealth is a leading national organization serving the fields of health services and policy research and the professionals who produce and use this important work. As a non-partisan organization and a purveyor of evidence, our advocacy priorities are guided by building a robust environment to produce health services research and enhance the dissemination and use of it.
