The Relative Importance of Patient, Physician, and Cost-Sharing
Factors in Adherence: a Study of Statin Adherence Among
Privately Insured Patients
Private grant, Brigham and Women’s Hospital
Role: PI
The goal of the study was to evaluate the relative importance of patient, physician, and
cost-sharing factors in explaining adherence, as well as the overall explanatory power
when considering all these factors, using rich administrative data.

The Effect of Universal Health Care on the Previously Insured:
Evidence from Medicare in Massachusetts
Rx Foundation
Role: Co-PI (Jha PI)
Although there have been anecdotal reports about the shortage of primary care that may
be worsened during insurance expansion, there is no evidence about its effect on
utilization and health. The goal of this project is to estimate the effects on utilization and
health on Medicare beneficiaries during insurance reform in Massachusetts.

David Chimin Chan, Jr., MD, PhD
Charles A. King Trust Postdoctoral Fellowship
Role: PI
The goal of this study is to quantify the effects that emergency physicians have on each
other (“peer effects”) in terms of productivity and choice of patients. It will study
exogenous matching of physicians to each other, as well as a natural experiment in which
physicians can no longer choose their own patients.
2011-2013

Patient Choice

Causes and Consequences of Physician Practice Patterns:
Evidence from VA Primary Care
VA HSR&D LIP 14-CC1
Role: Co-PI (Chan and Chee PIs)
The goal of this study is to develop new methods that use exogenous variation in the
assignment of patients to VA primary care providers to study the roots and effects of
practice style variation.
