This course critically examines the complex intersections between healthcare policy, social determinants of health, and systemic inequities. Students will develop comprehensive analytical skills to evaluate, design, and implement transformative health policies that address structural barriers to healthcare access and quality. The course focuses on interdisciplinary approaches to understanding healthcare challenges, exploring how social, economic, political, and cultural factors shape health outcomes. The course will analyze complex healthcare policy landscapes at local, national, and global levels. In addition, we will critically assess the impact of socioeconomic factors on health access and outcome and evaluate healthcare intervention strategies across different demographic contexts. Through rigorous theoretical frameworks and empirical research, students will investigate policy mechanisms that can reduce disparities and promote health equity across diverse populations.
