Welcome to the Mount Sinai Health Policy Initiative (HPI)

This blog is hosted by the Mount Sinai Health Policy Initiative (HPI) to encourage discussion among members within and outside the Mount Sinai community about the challenges in achieving quality, affordable healthcare and prospects for meaningful reform in our time. As students of the health professions, we have chosen to inherit a broken system whose history of present illness (also HPI - Coincidence? I think not!) has been dissected and debated, while we've been holed up in libraries or spending hours in the wards. Our sincere hope is that this blog will encourage students to become more engaged with the issues at stake and to contribute your thoughts to the discussion going on around you.

The American Muslim Health Professional (AMHP) is participating in Cover the Uninsured week (Mar 22nd-28th), a project by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation by holding events across six major cities to help bring awareness to the need for health care reform.
