State Health Policy

State government agencies facilitate multistakeholder collaborations and lead reforms in health insurance, medical care, public health, and social services. Through projects funded by states, foundations, and federal agencies, Mathematica supports improvement in state health policies across the nation through work that includes the following:

• Proposing solutions to help state and federal clients modernize health care systems, including designing multi-payer alternative payment models, delivery system reforms, and public health policy
• Performing independent data analysis, including experience with claims data, medical records, and other public health and socioeconomic data, and evaluating health and public health policy
• Providing strategic advisory services through leadership, expert technical advice, and coordination in policy research and policy development
• Developing and maintaining systems to analyze complex data, such as in all-payer claims databases, and producing reports to inform health legislation, executive directives, and public reporting

Our teams combine nuanced insights about state-specific policy and health system environments with the broad view of what’s working in other areas of the country to foster progress and drive data-driven decision making.
