Spotlight on Grantee Publications

Karen Eggleston, Ph.D., assistant professor of economics at Tufts University, co-authored an article titled “Hospital Ownership and Financial Performance: What Explains the Different Findings in the Empirical Literature?”  The article details HCFO-sponsored research on hospital ownership and financial performance. 

Korbin Liu, Ph.D., principal research associate at The Urban Institute, co-authored an article titled “Nursing Home Use by Dual-Eligible Beneficiaries in the Last Year of Life.” The article details HCFO-sponsored research on the financial implications of end-of-life care in a nursing home rather than an acute care facility. 

Stephen Parente, Ph.D., associate professor at the University of Minnesota, co-authored an article titled “Consumer-Directed Health Plans: New Evidence on Spending and Utilization.”  The article details HCFO-sponsored research on consumer use of health care services and spending under consumer-directed health plans.
