Healthcare policies play a critical role in addressing social determinants of health (SDOH), which can contribute to health disparities among different populations. Choose a current healthcare policy or initiative aimed at addressing SDOH (e.g., Medicaid expansion, community health programs, or housing initiatives) and discuss its potential to reduce health disparities. (CSLO #1)
Consider the following:
- How does the chosen policy address key SDOH factors (e.g., income, education, housing, access to healthcare)?
- What are the strengths and limitations of the policy in reducing health disparities?
- How can advanced practice nurses play a role in promoting or improving policies that address SDOH?
