In this episode of the InOn Health podcast, Sarah Dash, president and CEO of Alliance for Health Policy, joins KP to discuss her roles in health equity and healthcare initiatives in the United States. Sarah shares how she pursued a career path in public health policy, inspired by Edward Stierle’s biography, A Dance Against Time: The Brief, Brilliant Life of a Joffrey Dancer.
Before joining Alliance for Health Policy, Sarah shares her background as a Health Policy Advisor and Senior Legislative Assistant under Congresswoman Rosa L. DeLauro and Senator John D. Rockefeller IV. She outlines her roles in developing the Breast Cancer Patient Protection Act and the Informed Consumer Choices in Healthcare Act, which contributed to the final package of the Affordable Care Act under the Obama administration.
Alliance for Health Policy is a non-partisan, nonprofit organization to advance knowledge and education of health policy issues. The organization focuses on bi-partisan engagement with congressional staff to address the nation’s health care issues and make proposals for change. Alliance for Health Policy implements solution-focused dialogue regarding all initiatives. Sarah shares some of the health initiatives discussed with congress members, such as behavioral health, maternal mortality, rural access, and the opioid crisis.
Sarah and KP discuss the evolvement of health equity. They share how the lack of a clearly defined definition in the United States creates a divide in discussions and impacts policymakers in determining the concept. They further address how societal values contribute to the priorities and outlook of health equity—creating both destructive and constructive criticism. KP explains how constructive criticism can encourage positive discussion and lead to better, more inclusive policies.
