About Us

At CAHPR we journey through the intricate web of payment reform, the evolving landscape of Medicare, the impact of market consolidation, and the transformative power of state policies.

Mission Statement

CAHPR seeks to make fundamental contributions towards understanding and developing policies that reduce costs, enhance patient well-being, and bring about significant transformations in how health care is provided in the U.S. This work focuses primarily on how insurance plans are designed and how they interact within the health care market. It employs a creative method that marries detailed numbers-based policy examination with legal assessment. This combined approach helps pinpoint the most viable legal and regulatory adjustments capable of making a substantial impact on the health care landscape.

CAHPR seeks to make fundamental contributions towards understanding and developing policies that increase affordability and value in U.S. healthcare.

What makes us stand out?

Going Beyond Research

Even the best policy research can have little to no influence on policy change.

However, we at CAHPR bridge the gap by transforming the knowledge gained through research into practical and actionable policies. We recognize the influence of proper timing and effective dissemination of academic research within the policymaking process and work towards engaging with key stakeholders. We collaborate with partner researchers and practitioners who possess deep expertise in policy research and the policy-making process, and together we bring a dedicated focus to effectively translating our insights into real-world reforms
