Description
Health policy analysis provides informed advice to a client that relates to a public policy decision, includes a recommended course of action/inaction, and is framed by the client’s powers and values. • The first step in writing a policy analysis is to clearly define the problem you are analyzing. A problem statement should be succinct and written in the form of a question that identifies the problem addressed in the analysis. Samples of appropriate health policy analysis problem statement • Problem statement 1: Should the governor’s top priorities include initiating a new state program to reduce the number of obese residents? Problem statement 2: Should the governor’s priority of reducing the number of obese residents be accomplished by relying on currently existing programs? Again, the first problem statement asks whether providing a new healthcare program relating to obesity should be at the top of the governor’s agenda. It is possible that the answer is “No, other priorities such as education and transportation should take priority.” The second problem statement starts with the governor committed to reducing the obesity rate and asks how to best accomplish that goal. These may sound like similar questions, but they lead to very different analyses and (most likely) different recommendations. Sample of Health Policy Statement 2 • A broad problem statement: What action should the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services take to avoid another flu vaccine shortage? • A narrow problem statement: How can the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services create incentives for additional manufacturers to supply flu vaccine to the United States? sections will include: Abstract (separate page) Problem Statement Background of Problem Stakeholders Options Summary References (separate page)
