The Health Wonk Scholarship

healthinsurance.org scholarship provided awards for students committed to improving healthcare system, expanding coverage

The guest post "Healthcare lessons from the ‘World’s Prison Capital’" is from Eric Schultz, winner of healthinsurance.org’s 2016 Health Wonk Scholarship.

The Health Wonk Scholarship recognized the work of students in many disciplines who are working to improve population health and improve the quality of health insurance coverage for all Americans.

By disseminating the contributions of scholarship entrants winners, healthinsurance.org also sought to increase public awareness of the importance of expanding access to affordable, quality health insurance coverage.
