Arizona State University Policy Science Discussion

Review a policy (this might be an insurance-related, organizational, state, or federal policy) related to self-care or health promotion. Examples of self-care or health promotion policies might include Healthy People 2030, World Health Organization, Employee Assistance Programs, health insurance policies, etc. (see below for policy links for more ideas). Choose two patient-engagement or connectivity tools and discuss specifically how you would use them to support or meet the objectives or goals of the policy. Examples of patient-engagement or connectivity tools might include mobile apps, wearable technology, patient portals, social media, websites, telehealth, etc.
