Dan Diamond

Dan Diamond is a POLITICO policy reporter who’s the author of the PULSE newsletter and host of “Pulse Check,” the popular podcast that features weekly conversations with some of the most interesting and influential people in health care — a show that’s become “the Charlie Rose of health care,” says Andy Slavitt, who ran Medicare, Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act under President Obama.

Diamond covers the national health care debate for POLITICO, ranging from features about the White House’s response to the opioid crisis to the investigation of former HHS Secretary Tom Price’s use of private planes.

Before joining POLITICO, Diamond edited the Advisory Board Daily Briefing, served as the Advisory Board’s senior director of news and communications and created and hosted the popular Weekly Briefing health care podcast. He also covered health care policy, business, and strategy for FORBES. His work has appeared at Vox, Kaiser Health News and other publications.

Diamond is a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania and has appeared to discuss health care, politics, and policy on CNN, MSNBC, NPR’s “All Things Considered” and “1A,” the NBC Nightly News, the BBC, CBS, the Dan Patrick Show, and other programs. He was recently named a 2015-2016 fellow of the Association of Health Care Journalists.
