There have been few public opportunities to learn about the federal effort to align public health institutions, health system, and social services; enhance community collaborations, improve health, restore trust, and build more resilient health care and public health capabilities. Here is a new opportunity. (I do not know who the speakers will be)
Collaborative Action for America's Health:
Short- and Long-Term Strategies Across Public Health, Health Systems, and Social Services
February 29, 2024
3:00 - 5:00 PM ET
Virtually via Zoom

The health challenges facing the United States in the 21st century require a reinvigorated, feasible approach to public health and accountable population health – an approach that leverages traditional public health institutions working in close partnership with health systems and social services. This approach will require better leveraging of digital data systems, biomedical innovations, and trends in health policy and payment reforms to enhance community-specific capabilities through public-private collaboration. Enhanced collaboration will, in turn, enable better prediction and response to public health challenges; restored public trust and confidence; and better, more resilient, and more sustainable health care and public health capabilities.
Join the National Academy of Medicine (NAM) and Duke-Margolis Institute for Health Policy on February 29, 2024, for a dialogue with federal officials and leading experts from across health care and public health. This webinar will focus on collaborative short-term actions that could be taken to advance America's health – as well as emerging comprehensive strategies for public health and health care to seed further progress in 2025 and beyond.
This free public webinar will be accompanied by the release of a vision paper published by NAM and Duke-Margolis, and is intended to be the first step in addressing the most pressing challenges in reinvigorating public health and the sector's collaboration with health care organizations.
An agenda and speaker list will be announced in the coming weeks. Register below to secure your spot in the discussion:
