Kaiser Permanente Northern California Residency and Fellowship Programs hosts an annual two-week Resident Elective in Health Policy for our residents and fellows. The course is designed to orient our residents and fellows to the fast-changing world of health policy, increase their knowledge of key health policy issues facing their community and the nation, and prepare them to be effective physician-leaders and advocates in a systems-based practice.
Participants of the Elective in Health Policy:
Learn key aspects of U.S. health policy;
Participate in intensive virtual seminars with policy experts in health disparities, health economics, public health, quality improvement, value-based care, and other fields;
Understand their roles and opportunities within the local, state, and national health policy landscape;
Apply policy analysis, assessment and recommendations to real-world challenges by completing a group capstone project in health policy;
Translate their knowledge into practice;
Disseminate the information learned with their colleagues.
Many thanks to our planning committee: Tessa Stecker, Theresa Azevedo-Rousso, MPA, Dr. Renisha Coleman, DBA, Yasmin Crespo-Mejias, MD, MPH, Amanda Coy, and Shen'e Harris.
