Dear John,

Every month, Health Affairs Insiders get the inside track on what's happening in the world of health policy.

For $180 annually, Insiders receive exclusive perks such as:

• Monthly newsletters on topics from prescription drug prices and policy to the intersection of the US economy and health policy making.
  
  
• Trend reports on emerging topics such as Artificial Intelligence in Health Care and The Health Care Workforce that tie into relevant peer-reviewed research.
  
  
• Access to Insider-only events that provide deep dives on everything from 2025 Supreme Court decisions related to health care policy to a quick primer on site-neutral payments.

Next Up for Insiders

Join Health Affairs on August 20 for an exclusive Insider virtual event breaking down the 340B program with Sayeh Nikpay.

Nikpay joins Health Affairs’ Jessica Bylander to get Insiders up to speed on 340B, what’s new with the program’s policy considerations, how that manifests itself beyond the halls of Congress, and what is on the table for new policy and/or implementation arrangements.
