Deliberating at a Distance
INTRODUCTION: Alongside software developers, our community-academic partnership adapted an exercise designed for participatory priority setting to engage low-income community members in online deliberations about health and welfare spending priorities. This study evaluated the feasibility and quality of a fully virtual deliberative exercise using an adapted Choosing All Together (CHAT) tool among low-income community members. METHODS: Twenty-one …
Employment and Health Burden Changes Among Medicaid Expansion Enrollees
This cohort study evaluates the association between employment status and level of health burden among beneficiaries of a Michigan Medicaid health plan
How did European countries set health priorities in response to the Covid-19 threat? A comparative document analysis of 24 pandemic preparedness plans across the Euro region
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced governments across the world to consider how to prioritise the allocation of scarce resources. There are many tools and frameworks that have been designed to assist with the challenges of priority setting in health care. The purpose of this study was to examine the extent to which formal priority setting was evident in the pandemic plans produced by countries in the World Health Organisation's EURO region, during …
Stakeholder participation in the Covid-19 pandemic preparedness and response plans
Betraying, Earning, or Justifying Trust in Health Organizations
Health care and public health programs increasingly rely on, and often even require, organizational action, which is facilitated, if not dependent on, trust. Case examples in this essay highlight trust, trustworthiness, and distrust in public and private organizations, providing insights into how trust in health‐related organizations can be betrayed, earned, and justified and into the consequences of organizational trust and trustworthiness for t…
Trust and distrust in low‐income Michigan residents during the early Covid‐19 pandemic
BACKGROUND: Trust and distrust have shaped health behaviour during the COVID-19 pandemic. Since the start of the pandemic, misinformation and polarization eroded trust across the United States. In states like Michigan, pandemic restrictions led to significant unrest. Michiganders also faced disproportionate morbidity and mortality from COVID-19 during this period. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this qualitative study was to understand the individual…
Operationalizing a patient engagement plan for health research
INTRODUCTION: Engaging with patients about their lived experience of health and illness and their experience within the healthcare system can help inform the provision of care, health policies and health research. In the context of health research, however, operationalizing the levels of patient engagement is not straightforward. We suggest that a key challenge to the routine inclusion of patients as partners in health research is a lack of tangi…
Priority setting and equity in Covid-19 pandemic plans
Priority setting represents an even bigger challenge during public health emergencies than routine times. This is because such emergencies compete with routine programmes for the available health resources, strain health systems and shift health-care attention and resources towards containing the spread of the epidemic and treating those that fall seriously ill. This paper is part of a larger global study, the aim of which is to evaluate the degr…
Priority setting during the Covid-19 pandemic
Development of vaccines is a major breakthrough in the fight against the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Much attention has been paid to how to prioritise between patient groups for vaccination and how to ensure equity, especially in low-income countries, but there are other important decisions that need to be made. These decisions include: (a) choosing between the various vaccines that will become available, (b) continuing to invest in other aspects of the CO…
Beneficiaries' perspectives on improved oral health and its mediators after Medicaid expansion in Michigan
Michigan's Medicaid expansion contributed to self-reported improved oral health, which was associated with improved job outcomes. Policymakers should consider the importance of Medicaid dental coverage in reducing oral health disparities and improving the health and socioeconomic well-being of low-income adults and communities when considering this optional benefit
Does Group Deliberation Mobilize? The Effect of Public Deliberation on Willingness to Participate in Politics
Evaluating community deliberations about health research priorities
CONTEXT: Engaging underrepresented communities in health research priority setting could make the scientific agenda more equitable and more responsive to their needs. OBJECTIVE: Evaluate democratic deliberations engaging minority and underserved communities in setting health research priorities. METHODS: Participants from underrepresented communities throughout Michigan (47 groups, n = 519) engaged in structured deliberations about health researc…
Which Ethical Considerations Should Inform Hospice Decisions About Caring for Patients With Obesity
Hospice and palliative care clinicians have the potential to advocate for high-quality medical care for patients with obesity. This article explores current evidence on obesity at the end of life and ethical questions that emerge when a decision is made to enroll a patient with obesity in hospice
Market Language, Moral Language
Those who advocate higher out‐of‐pocket spending, especially high deductibles, to keep health care costs better controlled without losing quality use market language to talk about how people should think about health care. Consumers—that is, patients—should hunt for bargains. Clip coupons. Shop around. Patients need to have more “skin in the game.” Consumer‐patients will then choose more carefully and prudently and use less unnecessary health car…
Solidarity and cost management
CONTEXT: Approaches to priority-setting for scarce resources have shifted to public deliberation as trade-offs become more difficult. We report results of a qualitative analysis of public deliberation in Switzerland, a country with high health-care costs, an individual health insurance mandate and a strong tradition of direct democracy with frequent votes related to health care. METHODS: We adapted the Choosing Healthplans All Together (CHAT) too…
The State as Community in Community-Based Participatory Research
A geographically and culturally diverse partnership presents challenges and opportunities in representativeness, relationship building, capacity building, and communication
Public Deliberation in Health Policy and Bioethics
For over two decades, the “deliberative turn” has rooted itself in the fields of health policy and bioethics, producing a growing body of deliberation in action and associated academic scholarship. With this growing use and study of citizen deliberation processes in the health sector, we set out to map this dynamic field to highlight its diversity, interdisciplinarity, stated and implicit goals and early contributions. More specifically, we explo…
Is the Standard of Care Always Worth the Cost
There are few situations in which the standard of care is so clear-cut as to preclude physician judgment. Assessing the degree of need (not just the standard of care) when asking a patient to spend money requires judgment

Ethical Issues in Public Health Practice in Michigan
Objectives. We sought to ascertain the types of ethical challenges public health practitioners face in practice and to identify approaches used to resolve such challenges. Methods. We conducted 45 semistructured interviews with public health practitioners across a range of occupations (e.g., health officers, medical directors, sanitarians, nurses) at 13 health departments in Michigan. Results. Through qualitative analysis, we identified 5 broad c…
Enhancing employee capacity to prioritize health insurance benefits
Objective To demonstrate that employees can gain understanding of the financial constraints involved in designing health insurance benefits. Background While employees who receive their health insurance through the workplace have much at stake as the cost of health insurance rises, they are not necessarily prepared to constructively participate in prioritizing their health insurance benefits in order to limit cost. Design Structured group exercis…

Trust and the Ethics of Health Care Institutions
Though trust is essential to relationships between people, including that between patient and clinician, its role in organizational ethics is largely unexplored. Nonetheless, trust is also ideally a part of the relationship between patient and health care institution, both because it is desirable in and of itself, and because it makes for better medical care

Measuring Patient Expectations
BACKGROUND: Fulfillment of patients' expectations may influence health care utilization, affect patient satisfaction, and be used to indicate quality of care. Several different instruments have been used to measure expectations, yet little is known about how different assessment methods affect outcomes. OBJECTIVE: The object of the study was to determine whether different measurement instruments elicit different numbers and types of expectations …
