New Center for Health Policy Approved

Health care reform, distracted and impaired driving laws and strategies to increase the size of the health care workforce are samples of policies that will be researched and analyzed in UNMC’s new Center for Health Policy. The center, approved Friday by the University of Nebraska Board of Regents, will serve as a bridge between academic health researchers, state and local government, health care organizations and community leaders to help shape health policy decisions. The center will become the premier resource for leaders who seek policy solutions that improve the health of Nebraskans. Through the center, UNMC faculty and students will conduct interdisciplinary research and provide objective analysis of health policies.
