About
Our interdisciplinary mission is to facilitate research, promote education and inform policy about health and healthcare.
Established in 1994 as the Center for Health Services Research in Primary Care, the center’s initial focus was on the role of primary care in the healthcare system and the interrelationships among healthcare delivery, costs and patient outcomes in primary care. In 2006, the center was renamed the Center for Healthcare Policy and Research to reflect its expanded interdisciplinary mission to facilitate research, promote education and inform policy about health and healthcare.
