> Australia, Germany, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Switzerland,
> and the United Kingdom.
> The deadline for receipt of applications is
> September 15, 2009.

> The Harkness Fellowships in Health Care Policy and Practice provide a
> unique opportunity for mid-career professionals—academic researchers,
> government policymakers, clinicians, managers, and journalists—to
> spend up to 12 months in the United States conducting a
> policy-oriented research study, working with leading U.S. health
> policy experts, and gaining in-depth knowledge of not only the U.S.
> health care system, but also the health care systems in the fellows'
> home countries. Fellows also participate in a Fund-organized series of
> policy and leadership seminars held throughout the year with U.S.
> health care leaders in government, politics, health care
> organizations, and academia.
>
> Applicants must demonstrate a strong interest in health policy issues
> and propose a study that falls within the scope of the Fund's mission
> to support a high-performing health care system, which includes
> improving health insurance coverage and access, and the quality and
> efficiency of health care services. A peer-reviewed journal article or
> policy report for health ministers and other high-level policy
> audiences is the anticipated product of the fellowship. Harkness
> Fellows have published their findings in leading journals, including:
> BMJ, Health Affairs, Health Policy, International Journal for Quality
> in Health Care, New England Journal of Medicine, and Quality and
> Safety in Health Care.
>
> Each fellowship provides up to $107,000 (U.S.) in support. A
> supplemental allowance is provided to fellows accompanied by families.
