Aligning policy and people: transforming advanced care

On Tuesday, June 21, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., The Coalition to Transform Advanced Care (C-TAC) and The Petrie-Flom Center for Health Law Policy, Technology, and Bioethics at Harvard Law School will co-host the inaugural event for the Project on Advanced Care and Health Policy entitled, Aligning Policy and People: Why the Time is Right to Transform Advanced Care.  The conference will feature policymakers, thought leaders, clinicians, consumer advocates, and others in an effort to work to identify the timely, practical, and actionable opportunities to transform care for people with advanced illness nearing end-of-life.

This collaboration between C-TAC and the Petrie-Flom Center was established with the goal of fostering the development of improved models of care for individuals with serious advanced illness nearing end-of-life, and applying interdisciplinary analysis to important health law and policy issues raised by the adoption of new person-centered approaches to care for this growing population.
