1 1 NEW YORK UNIVERSITY ROBERT F. WAGNER GRADUATE SCHOOL OF PUBLIC SERVICE INTRODUCTION TO HEALTH POLICY AND MANAGEMENT HPAM-GP Fall 2011 Mondays 10:30 am - 12:10 pm Silver 410 Assistant Professor Lucy MacPhail Office: Puck Building, 295 Lafayette Street, 3062 Office hours: Thursdays 2:00-3:30 pm or by appointment lucy.macphail@nyu.edu COURSE SYLLABUS This core course in the NYU Wagner MPA: Health Policy and Management program explores major topics in the study of health and health care delivery. We will discuss determinants of health, the social distribution of health and disease, and health disparities; the organization and financing of the U.S. health care system, its historical context, the roles and behaviors of its key actors, and its comparison to health systems of other nations; the quality, cost and accessibility of health care services; and health care delivery system improvement and reform. We will examine these themes using a multidisciplinary approach that employs sociological, political, economic and ethical perspectives on health and disease, the health care system, and the challenges of meeting the varied (and often conflicting) needs and motivations of health care system stakeholders. The objective of this course is to build understanding of fundamental ideas, issues and problems in health policy and management and thereby to provide a strong foundation for future studies and careers in the health care field. COURSE COMPETENCIES Course Focus: The ability to assess population and community health needs from a public service perspective The ability to examine social and behavioral determinants of health and understand how health systems can address the needs of vulnerable populations The ability to understand how policy and delivery processes work, and to consider the demographic, cultural, political and regulatory factors involved in and influencing health policy and management decision-making Relevant Content for the Following Competencies is Also Included: The ability to understand and apply legal and ethical principles to managerial and leadership decisions affecting health care organizations The ability to measure, monitor and improve safety, quality, access and system/care delivery
2 2 processes in health care organizations The ability to draw implications and conclusions to develop an evolving vision that results in longterm organizational viability The ability to communicate and interact productively (via listening, speaking and writing) on matters of healthcare with a diverse and changing industry, work force and citizenry The ability to present convincingly to individuals and groups the evidence to support a point of view, position or recommendation LEARNING OBJECTIVES At the conclusion of this course, students will be prepared to: Describe the organization, financing and performance of the U.S. health care delivery system Identify determinants of health and explain their impact on the distribution of health and disease Define the roles of key stakeholders providers, government and private payers, employers, regulators, patients and describe their incentives and behavior Compare the U.S. health care system to models of health care organization and financing abroad Explain fundamental concepts of health care payment and performance measurement Define major health policy developments over the past 50 years and explain their significance Analyze strengths, weaknesses and feasibility of policy and management approaches that aim to promote health, prevent disease and improve health services delivery and assess the impact of these approaches on quality, access, cost and equity goals BOOKS AND READINGS Students should arrive to class prepared to participate in the discussion of these themes based on their critical analysis of assigned readings.

9 9 WRITTEN ASSIGNMENTS In addition to attending and participating in classes, students are required to submit two papers and three short written exercises. Please format all written work with 1-inch margins and 12-point font. Paper 1: Public Health Memo (Due October 4) 4 double-spaced pages maximum Please write a concise, well-structured memo to the attention of the mayor, governor or other government official of a town/city or state you have inhabited (or another town/city or state of interest to you) in which you provide analysis on how to improve the health of the local population. Present evidence on factors that influence health and identify priorities and recommended actions that the municipal or state government should pursue to achieve meaningful improvements in community health over the next 10 years. In your memo, please include the following: Background on the health of the focal town/city or state population Three top-priority objectives that government and other community-based entities should aim to achieve over the next 10 years, with well-reasoned arguments for the selection of these objectives motivated by themes discussed thus far in the course Strategies to achieve these objectives, with consideration of both potential impact and feasibility Your paper should be focused and direct, consistent with the memo style, and it should not exceed four pages. Please see the Writing Center Guide to Writing Memos, posted on under the Assignments tab, for memo composition guidelines. Citations are required. Exhibits (not included in page length) are permitted but not required. Paper 2: Final Essay (Due December 13) 8 double-spaced pages maximum Please write a research paper in which you focus on one dimension of the performance of the U.S. health care delivery system explored in the course, how performance on this dimension is influenced by the organization and financing of health care in the U.S. and the behavior of its key stakeholders, what must be improved or reformed to achieve performance gains in your selected area, and implications of your analysis for health policy and management. You may focus on performance in a broadly-defined area such as quality of care, cost-effectiveness, or access to care or you may define your focus more narrowly within one of these categories (for example, quality of care for patients with chronic disease, cost-effectiveness with respect to implementation of new technologies, etc.). In your analysis, please consider all stakeholders relevant to your specified focus providers, payers and purchasers, patients, communities, policy-makers, other groups that play a role in performance in your focal area and be sure to examine performance and implications for reform at both the policy and delivery system levels. Please include references to course readings as well as any relevant outside sources that support your analysis. Citations and a references page (not included in page length) are required.
10 10 Response Exercises Complete 3 of 4: Due September 20, October 18, November 8 and November 29 One double-spaced page maximum Please write three brief responses to topics posted in the Discussion Forum on.

What are the most promising avenues for increasing value and containing cost growth in health care? EXERCISE 3: DUE NOVEMBER 8 Topic: What are the barriers to informed patient decision-making when selecting providers and determining treatments that are aligned with personal preferences? What changes are necessary to enable patients to engage with the health care system as activated consumers?
