- Insufficient attention has been given to the ethical and legal questions surrounding mandatory evacuation in disasters and emergencies.

- Promoting Evidence-Based Public Health Policy: Can We Have Better Evidence And More Action?
- Evidence-based approaches those explicitly linked to the best available scientific evidence and reflecting community preferences and feasibility are increasingly used to inform health policy decision making on the burden of a disease attributable to particular causes, interventions and policies that might work to confront those causes, and issues of community...

- In the United States, more money is spent on treating diseases and their complications than on preventing them in the first place.

- Can Public Health and Medicine Partner in the Public Interest?

- How Much More Cost Sharing Will Health Savings Accounts Bring?
- Proponents of Health Savings Accounts HSAs contend that they will reduce medical expenditures. In practice, however, the effect of HSAs, and the high-deductible health plans that must accompany them, will depend on the actual provisions of those plans and of the plans they replace. This paper shows that typical plans...

- Do Mandates Requiring Insurers to Pay for Emergency Care Influence the Use of the Emergency Department?
- Many states have "Prudent layperson" mandates that require health plans to reimburse hospitals for Emergency Department ED care delivered to patients who believe that they have symptoms warranting emergency treatment. Increased, and possibly unnecessary, ED use has often been attributed to these policies. Data has been used from thirty-five states...

- Health Care Reform: Why? What? When?
- Dissatisfaction with the U.S. health care system is widespread, but no consensus has emerged as to how to reform it. The principal methods of finance, employer-based insurance, means-tested insurance, and Medicare, are deeply and irreparably flawed. Policymakers confront two fundamental questions: Should reform be incremental or comprehensive? And should priority...

- Whence and Whither Health Insurance? A Revisionist History

- The Rise in Health Care Spending and What to Do About It
- Reforms for slowing the growth in health care spending and increasing the value of care have largely focused on insurance-based solutions.

- U.S. Adoption of Computerized Physician Order Entry Systems
- Computerized Physician Order Entry CPOE has been shown to reduce preventable, potential adverse events.

- Legal Status and Health Insurance Among Immigrants
- The foreign-born represent a disproportionate share of nonelderly U.S. adults without health insurance. Using data from Los Angeles County, this report finds that most of the insurance disparities between the foreign-born and native-born can be explained by traditional socioeconomic factors. Undocumented immigrants, however, have lower rates of coverage, both private...

- Which Way for Competition? None of the Above
- Despite growing documentation that the conditions needed to support competition in health care do not exist, consumer-directed health care has been offered as the new market-based solution to cost inflation.
