Health Affairs 2013 Grant
Grant Summary
In a move to guide decision-making by health systems leaders and government policy makers, the Hartford Foundation Board of Trustees approved a $429,481 two-year grant to partner with Health Affairs, the country’s leading health policy journal, to publish and widely disseminate research, analysis, and commentary on new health care models that improve health for older adults. Under the Policy and Communications portfolio, the grant will both advance best practices in geriatric care and position aging and health policy issues as central to the national health care dialogue. Over the two years of the grant, Health Affairs will publish at least 12 peer-reviewed papers that present important policy content and selected authors will take part in at least two Capitol-area briefings. The Hartford Foundation and its grantees will participate in the planning process to identify potential topics and authors for consideration as peer-reviewed Health Affairs papers, and the journal will work with the Foundation’s communications consultants at Strategic Communications & Planning (SCP) on extensive media outreach.
