Abstract: This chapter examines the effects of lobbying to influence the political demand for health care. The chapter proceeds with a discussion of the main features of lobbying models, their application in the realm of healthcare policymaking including the consideration of stakeholders, and then provides a summary of findings. Readers are pointed to data for future research and data sources that can be used to do research in the field of healthcare policy lobbying. Finally, the chapter discusses the role that lobbying might have in policymaking aimed at promoting health equity and other important health-related policy objectives.
