About Us

Policy Prescriptions® originated in 2006 with the goal of providing concise reviews of the health policy literature to stakeholders such as clinicians, policy makers, and the lay public. The organization was founded by two physicians whose work for the United States Congress revealed an imminent need to connect decision makers with clinicians as a means to improve the state of the American health care system. Policy Prescriptions® appeared first online July 18, 2008.

A decade later, in 2018, we set out on a new journey – to actively advocate for evidence-based health policy. Members of our team are available to consult with you about the evidence surrounding many health policy decisions including women’s health, access to care for vulnerable populations, gun violence, health equity, and universal coverage. Request a consultation through our Speakers’ Bureau.
