Health and Global Policy Institute (HGPI) held the July Study Group Session of the 11th semester of Health Policy Academy (HPA).

At the study group session, we had discussion on “Political Actions for Strengthening the COVID-19 Diagnostic Testing Capacity during The Pandemic.” The perspectives brought to the discussion through the session included the pros and cons of the health policy actions taken during the pandemic, such as listing the PCR testing on the National Medical Fee Schedule in Japan.

The 11th semester of HPA will be held over the next six months. It aims to provide participants with opportunities to learn basic knowledge and acquire skills for health policy through lectures by opinion leaders and interactive multi-stakeholder discussions among participants.

This program is available only in Japanese.
