AHLA Podcast Guidelines
AHLA's Speaking of Health Law podcasts offer thoughtful analysis and insightful commentary on the legal and policy issues affecting the health care system.[1] AHLA welcomes volunteer contributions to the podcast channel, subject to the requirements and process outlined below.
General Requirements
- Groups or individuals who wish to propose a podcast must route those proposals through a submission process, like any other AHLA content proposal. Groups or individuals submitting a proposal should not confirm speakers or other participants prior to submitting the proposal for review.
- Podcasts should have between two and four speakers (including the host/moderator). No more than one individual from a single organization may speak on a podcast.
- Podcasts should be 20-40 minutes long, and they should be very conversational in tone. Podcasts should not be delivered in a presentation-style format.
- Specific to Practice Groups: Podcasts cannot be counted toward a Practice Group’s minimum content requirements like member-exclusive items such as bulletins, briefings, toolkits, and Health Law Connections articles. Podcasts will still be considered when evaluating a Practice Group’s overall output and will be included on all relevant output reports.
Process for Content Development
- Volunteer submits a podcast proposal [email protected]. Volunteer may also indicate whether they believe a video component is appropriate, subject to AHLA review and approval.
- AHLA Education staff reviews the podcast proposal, considers it in light of other content and content needs, and contacts volunteer with any questions or concerns.
- Once a podcast proposal is approved, volunteer should confirm speakers and provide contact information to AHLA. AHLA Education staff will then determine the recording/release schedule and provide logistical information and support to participants.[2]
- AHLA Education staff records, edits, and releases the podcast.
